On my boat more walleye on hot-n-tots than all other crankbaits combined. I really like the chrome & blue, rosemary which is kind of black with gold cross hatching, solid gold and water mellon, which is kind of a lime green.

We pull Hot-N-Tots almost exclusively out of Pinny. Typically the blue/silver, but keep the whole variety. Really depends on the mood of the fish, we let them dictate. Typically we put on 2 blue/silvers and then 2 other colors out of 4 rods, whatever they decide they want to eat, we switch.

Agree on the tots. Colors I am not sure on. Did catch a couple of nice eyes out of au gres with trout colored sticks this spring:confused: We where trolling for browns.

Yes, the Hot-N-Tots are my best crankbait for the walleye as well, not just on saginaw bay but on inland waters as well. However, I like the old style more the ones with the metal lips instead of the plastic bills. But I have always had success on Gold with black back silver with black back and there is a new color that kind of is like a perch color that I have a lot of success on in inland waters.

Have had good luck with both Hot-N-Tots and Wiggle Warts, in silver and gold colors, black backs.
