The small size of Walker Lake B makes quiet casts and short moves more useful than carrying a pile of tackle.
During the start of a weather change near a windblown shore after warm rain, the fish mix is not confirmed, so check fresh local information before choosing a target or keeping a catch.
On a careful second pass near a small drop with a slow lure, begin with one slow bottom presentation and one moving bait, then let bites show whether fish are holding close to cover or roaming open water.
On a slow shoreline pass near the mouth of a pocket under flat light, make one shallow pass and one deeper pass on the same shoreline; that shows whether fish are tight to cover or using the first break.
While using one pass beside the best cover near the outside weed line away from empty shoreline, early in the year, protected water and the first warm afternoon can be the best clues; as the water heats up, check deeper edges without assuming every fish is on the bottom; cooling fall water often makes points and firm banks useful again.
On a methodical search near the outside weed line under flat light, a medium spinning rod, 8-pound line, a small box of jigs, a few crankbaits, and a simple bottom rig cover most situations; change depth or speed before changing every piece of tackle.
On a quick scouting pass near a channel bend before changing depth, record the wind, water color, depth of the working lure, and cover after a bite; those four notes are more useful on the next trip than a long list of spots that did not produce.
