im fishing a river anywhere from 10-20 feet i usually stay in the middle its a pretty soft bottom with some rock ledges here and there

Had tons of luck fishing rivers for walleyes trolling #7 shad raps and wally divers. You need a crank bait that will track good in strong current, Rapalas will do that, not many others will. Husky jerks, original floaters, shallow shad raps are all good river walleye baits. Pike will also hit cranks with regularity, just use brighter colors(firetiger, chartuese). Get your lure about 120 ft (give or take 20ft) behind the boat and start trolling up likely shorelines.
