The walleye gather around and on the reefs in the western basin to spawn. I'm not 100% sure about it, but I believe most of the spawning is done there. There are resident fish that spawn in the central basin, but nothing compared to the reefs. If I were going to try the central basin, I would find structure in different depths of water from 10' to 20' and try all of them until I found fish. but if I had a trailerable boat I would go west.
