I find a lot of people try and work a spook like a Pencil. It works a LOT better if you can actually get one to dart a foot or more back and forth at a slower pace.

Walking the dog works best if you can keep your rod tip down. Reel at a steady speed and make a series of jerks with the rod tip. Long, slow jerks will give a wide "arc" to the lure, short quick jerks will cause the lure to move back in forth quickly and in a narrow path.
Experiment in calm water. Easiest to do off of a boat where you can keep your rod tip pionted at the water.

Three-fourths of the Earth's surface is water, and one-fourth is land. It is quite clear that the good Lord intended us to spend triple the amount of time fishing as taking care of the lawn.

Tuna love a tight walk with a spook too. |

The big thing with walking the dog is learning it at daytime so you know how one particular action in a particular sea state does what to the plug. The action also varies on how far the plug is from the rod...
Varrying retrieve to find what the fish are on is a good practice but I personally start with a s l o w side to side motion and vary from there - I also always go back to slow when things slack...
