Default Favorite plastics for Walleye.

Hey all, just wanted everyones opinion on something.

With all these new brands and styles of soft plastic baits, I was wondering what was some of your favorites for targeting walleye?

I personally love the stuff that Northland Tackle makes, their "impulse" brand plastics are a lot more supple/soft and have a better action underwater. I find and the Berkly Gulp! brand minnows are a lot more rigid and don't have as nice of an action, though the Gulp! leeches are decent.

Also, if anyone knows where I can buy the northland tackle brand RingWorm™ style plastic please let me know! I know I can order them online but was wondering if I can save on shipping and find them stocked in a store here in Edmonton.

Thanks in advance for any replies!

PS: It doesn't have to be just walleye, if you know a plastic that slays whitefish or pike or trout or any sportfish, then feel free to contribute!

B fishntackle has pulsar and moxi plastics that I like to use. Nice thing with plastics is that if it has a tail, it'll work. Honestly I don't see a huge difference between brands. As long as it's presented correctly and the right colour, it'll work.

Trigger X glow moustache worms work great for the evening bite

I don’t use plastics for walleye. I prefer crankbaits if fishing artificials for walleye. Now for largemouth? Give me a black 4” Yum or 6” tequila sunrise Berkley Power on a 4/0 worm hook and we are good to go!

Some nice looking stuff on their website! Too bad they don't have a store here in Edmonton, I'll have to ship some of those goodies in though for sure.
