Walleye Fishing

Fishing Location: Upper Columbia River

Fishing times:  Year round:

———————————

Walleye can be caught year round.  The times of year I target these fish the most is September through November (1-4lbs avg) and February through April (6-12lbs avg).  We will be fishing out of a 24’ Alumaweld Super Vee Pro or 21’ bass boat using top quality spinning or casting rods with excellent sensitivity to be able to key in on soft bites.  In the fall expect to catch several fish per person, we will generally be trolling a worm harness or plug.

In February through April we will mostly be jig fishing.  This is the time of year Walleye are in pre-spawn and when the water temperature is right they bed up and spawn.  Expect to boat somewhere between 1 to 5 fish per person.  The males generally average 6 pounds, while the females tend to range between 6 and 12 pounds.  It is not uncommon to land fish between 12 and 16 pounds.
