In order to vertical jig effectively, cast your line out and let the jig sink to the bottom. Once it hits the bottom, start reeling in slowly. As you reel in, lift your rod tip up and down. This action will make the jig swim in a vertical motion, which Walleye are attracted to. Be sure to keep an eye on your line, as Walleye are known for being hard fighters.
