Spring Walleye Fishing

It has been a long winter and you are ready to hit the lake for some spring walleye fishing.
Let us get started with some basics for the amateur angler to try. The first thing we need to do is get you the angler into some warm clothing because it is going to be cold out there.

Now that that is taken care of dressing you warmly, let us talk about some of the tackle you will require. I would recommend a six-foot rod and reel combo for the average amateur fisherman to start out. Some jigs, plastic grub tails, and some live minnows will work well. The crank bait or spinner bait with a slow retrieve can produce fish as well, but let us stick to the basics for now.

I have caught many walleye using a jig and minnow with a slow retrieve, bouncing along a rocky bottom at this time of year. The spawn is over and the water is still very cold except near the shorelines where the males will still be near the spawn beds.

These fish will relate to just about any fresh new weeds you can find in deeper water during the brightness of the day. I like to use a slip bobber arrangement with live bait at this time.

A boat is helpful, but not required if you can fish near the shore at the lake. The best time of the day for feeding walleye near the shore seems to be near dusk and dawn. You can even have a good amount of success when fishing from docks, piers or shorelines in the early spring.

The more you can learn by using Walleye Tips information the faster you will move up to be an expert walleye fisherman
