How and where do u catch a trophy walleye in april?

[weight forward]

The best, for me, is to just luck into one once in a while.
However, a few times a year I do catch one of those big, monster sheepshead that trick your mind. You know, the one that you're pretty sure is huge sheepshead, but the whole time you're realing, you keep thinking maybe, just maybe...
It's fun anyway.

The males, as you have found, will hang around the reefs far longer than the females. This is the deal! After they spawn the females leave the reef area and head to open water. The cans around the reef area will produce bigger females suspended through the first couple weeks in april. when the water temp is around 43 degrees and up the females could be found by the cans all the way to the west side of north bass. One the water hits the 46 and up there will be alot of fish around north bass and kelleyes island and the cans begin to thin out a little as far as the bigger walleyes. I could make this really long but I think you get the idea.Alot of factors play in to this bite, wind,weather patterns etc! pull reef runners above where your marking the walleyes and you'll get em . Hope this makes sense. best of luck and good bless.

North of Kelleys is usually pretty solid. Last year my dad and I worked right on the Canadian line ENE of North Bass and got um pretty good. Lost my trophy there with 30 feet left on the line counter.
