Basically cast the biggest fly your rod can handle. With an 8wt, that is probably a bunny leech, and it is my go-to pike fly. Rabbit hair flies are awesome, but they soak up a lot of water, so they become quite heavy. On a lighter rod, I would go for a larger clouser minnow or whistler.

You can catch walleye as a side catch, but you need a sinking line (or a lot of luck) to target them. At dawn and dusk, I often catch them on pike flies. If you want to target them, just use a trout streamer, like a zonker or clouser.
