For me, I have been doing better from shore for walleye. I find a steeper shoreline this should put you in deeper water. I fish a river so if you are in a lake this may be useless info. The most productive color I have used has been yellow or chartruse. I will use a grub or a twister worm and cut it down to 3.5" and put it on a 1/8 jighead.
As far as current I am fishing a large eddy pool with a lot of back current. The pools depth is in the 20' range. If you can find a section of water like that give it a shot.Give extra attention where main river flow and back current meet.
The most important thing I found is your retreive. Pay close attention to how you are working your bait. Sometimes it's slow and steady. or slow with slight lifts in your rod tip, or even let it lay for a second or two and pop it off the bottom. Figure out the presentation for the day and you will do good.
I just made up some new jigheads. I'm looking forward to put them to the test.
