This isn't your typical weekend fishing trip where you're guessing where the fish might be hiding. We know these waters like the back of our hand, and more importantly, we know where the walleye hang out during different times of the day and season.

The beauty of walleye fishing is that it works for everyone – beginners pick up the techniques fast, and experienced anglers appreciate the consistent action.

The intimate group size of just two guests means personalized instruction and plenty of one-on-one time to dial in your technique.
Walleye fishing is all about finesse and reading the water. We'll start you off with live bait rigs – usually crawler harnesses or jig and minnow combinations that walleye can't resist. Depending on conditions, we might switch to trolling with bottom bouncers and spinner rigs to cover more water efficiently. The key is staying in contact with the bottom where walleye spend most of their time feeding. We use medium-light action rods with sensitive tips so you can feel every tap and nibble – walleye aren't always aggressive strikers, so detecting those subtle bites makes all the difference. Our tackle boxes are stocked with proven colors and presentations that produce consistently. You'll learn to work different depths, adjust your drift speed, and recognize the difference between a snag and a fish pickup.
Walleye are hands down one of the most rewarding freshwater fish to target, and there's good reason they're called the best eating fish in the lake. These golden beauties typically run anywhere from 14 to 20 inches on our trips, with plenty of keeper-sized fish and the occasional bruiser pushing 25 inches or better. Walleye are most active during low-light periods – early morning and evening – when they move shallow to feed on baitfish. They have excellent night vision thanks to a reflective layer in their eyes, which gives them that distinctive glassy look and makes them such effective predators in murky water. What makes walleye fishing so addictive is their predictable behavior once you understand their patterns. They school up in specific areas based on water temperature, structure, and food sources. During summer months, you'll find them relating to deeper structure during the day, then moving to shallow feeding areas as the sun gets lower. Fall fishing is particularly productive as walleye feed heavily before winter, often resulting in multiple fish catches that'll have you grinning from ear to ear.
