So miss walleye through the ice.  It's been quite a while but my experiences may be of value.  I found that on really bright days, the walleye bite was poor and would come on towards late afternoon as the sun dropped and that late afternoon twilight began, then stopped abruptly when the sky went dark.  Though a minnow tipped flutter type jig was good, my favorite was a white teardrop blade jig (red dot) and a perch eye.  Soldered gold hook in size 8 or 6.  I took very few walleyes in my shanty, most were on open ice.
