    Default Return of the Walleye

    When do the walleye return in numbers to the western basin? Looking to do some fall/late fall walleye trolling this year, and curious if it is even worth it?

    I miss slow trolling at 1.1 sog in the spring, ready to do some more!

    I am anxiously awaiting some good reports of open water fish.
    Need to fill the freezer. Walleye section is getting low.

    Default moon phase also

    Pay attention to the moon phase also. During the Full moon and clear nights, the walleye tend to feed all night long. When the sun comes up the walleye head to the bottom and lay flat on the bottom. The afternoon they start to rise up and feed again. Use this guide to plan your day. The walleye are coming back and we will have new moon in couple weeks. These cool nights help. The daylight is also changing fast and is the beginning off the fall feed bag fest.

    Till the water temp drops quite a bit more, I don't believe your going to find them in close to SSP. Maybe Fermi, but you will still be fighting weeds, or head towards WS and watch your graph for marks.
    I can only hope I have earned the freedom that has been given me.

    Yeah, good point. It has to be pretty darn nice for me to head out to west sister.
