Ohio's board is pretty empty. It's not that cold. Is it?

I have been fishing walleye on the waters of Lake Erie for the past 20 some years and was just wondering if anyone could enlighten me on a few new tips? The Lake Erie Gods have not been very accomodating to the drift-casters for several years now. Each year is more of a challenge than the last. Clearer water, zebra mussles, gobey and ruff infestations, Canada's nets, all seem to bring more obstacles to the simple cast and retrieve method I love. (I hate trolling) What do I need to do to improve my success? (besides trolling. Did I mention that?)

Thanks for your thoughts! I'll just sit back and watch the ice melt for another month or so.
