The walleye bite has been really good the last few weeks. We have seen some really nice upper 20″ fish . The biggest was a 27″ post spawn female . The spawning is over and the fish are chasing bait on the main lake and feeding up for summer. We are catching fish a number of different ways from trolling to jigging depending on the day and weather. Look for fish to be more active during the day if its cloudy overcast,or raining. Bright sunny days make for a tough bite . The fish are scattered in 20 to 30 feet on rock piles and drop-offs in the day time, and the bite has been best early in the morning and right after dark. After dark, they move up a little shallower, so if you’re catching them and then you’re not, you may need to adjust to a little shallower water. I’m mainly fishing the river mouth area, point 5, and the islands in that general area right now as that’s the best concentration of catchable fish, but there’s certainly fish all over the pond. The herring spawn and the full moon are both big events this month . Finding the big females after dark is what we will be focused on when both of these happen. This is a great time for big fish
