Fishing Strategies For Big Walleye

Finding the right location as far as the lake or river is concerned is another consideration. Some lakes and rivers have larger walleye and some only have smaller walleye. The way to find the right waters is by checking the fishing reports and talking with other anglers. Some of the world’s records for walleye will give you some idea of where the big fish are coming from as well. Listen to what the fishing reports are saying for the day. It is always best to have a map of the water where you will fish as well as a fish locator.

Bait the walleye to the bite. Presentation means everything when you are trying to catch the big walleye. As most anglers will tell you, minnows work the best, but in some waters and areas, the walleye bite at leeches and night crawlers.

Whether you are fishing horizontal and vertical will depend on the area you are fishing as well as the weather conditions. It is so important to know the weather conditions for every day you plan to fish. The best days for fishing walleye are when it is overcast and slightly windy.

When you consider all these tips, you will see that the way to catch the big walleye means taking some time to study the area. You will not always catch the trophy walleye, but you can if you give them a presentation that they cannot refuse. Remember if you want to catch a big fish, you have to give it a larger bait. If you want to catch a small walleye or maybe a larger walleye, you can use a smaller minnow or other baits. Walleye fishing is exciting and everyone that goes out for the day never wants to stop. The fish are tasty and sough after all year long.
