I'm getting "volunteered" to go fishing with the same bunch of guys, from last year. 
As hard as that river environment is on equipment and people, it's entertaining. At least I know, going in, that I'm going to lose some jigs, break some lines, stumble around a lot, etc. I purchased a new Ugly Stik rod/reel combo, in a medium-heavy action for this years' walleye run and it'll be a good setup. I use a medium action rod/reel setup, last year and it outlasted a couple other rod/reel combos.
The Maumee Tackle website has the current water temperature at 38 degrees and the river level at 582.5. The level is good, but that temp needs to come up another 5 degrees, before the walleye will start moving in any numbers.
