The best fight I ever got out of a walleye was post spawn at willard bay. It was only a four and a half pound fish but it fought about a fiesty as a trout all the way to the boat. Dont tell me your state record eye didnt put up a fight. That big old chicken must have tugged a little. Too many trollers dont get to feel anything on a walleye due to the fact that they keep the boat trolling while they bring in the fish. If you stop the boat you will feel thier head shakes now and then. Bottom bouncers and planer boards also decrease the fight. But no its not much in my expirience. But you know what I say? Who cares? You want to catch fighting fish, go lake trout, wiper, or smallmouth fishing.
