Is ice fishing for Walleye better at night like it is in the warmer months?
Not necessarily. In the winter months, especially right after the first ice, the Walleye is basically in a feeding frenzy. They’re binge eaters trying to put on enough
weight to carry them through the long winter, consequently, while most anglers will hang up their rods when the sun rises, the pro’s will often stay on the lake and continue to pull in big fish. While it’s true that the Walleye will feed most aggressively early in the morning and late in the day, it’s important to remember that the Walleye will move and feed when as they need to and in the winter it’s usually more often than it is in the summer. If the light is low, you may want to consider using a spoon with a rattle or
Something luminescent such as Lindy’s Techni-Glo to get their attention.
