Title: Walleye advice
Post by WoolShirt on Sep 4^th, 2014 at 3:02pm

Any Advice for walleyes this time of year, Sept 6-12? we will be on Wind Lake, Wind Bay and may venture to the no motor zone on Basswood if wind conditions allow. If wind is bad we may head to Indiana & Good. Never had much luck with walleyes in the summer. I'm rigged for Pike, but my wife would like to catch some walleyes. I know jigging is effective, but doesn't trip my trigger. Also, we have a decent fish-finder rigged for the canoe. First Vacation in two summers...i can't sleep! Many Thanks! :)

Having the fish finder should make it a lot easier to locate structure while trolling. Just look for lots of rocks and depth changes. I would concentrate on 15'-25'.

Windy points on structure. I'm not sure which is more important but if I can drift and jig while catching… I'm happy.

early mornings on the east side of the lake. the sun rises in the east so the west shore will get sun first. stay in the shade. and by early morning im talking 5-8am.
