The best time to catch walleye is typically during the early morning hours just before sunrise and in the late afternoon to dusk. Walleye are more active during these times as they hunt for food. Additionally, walleye fishing can be particularly productive during the spring when they spawn, usually between late March and early May, depending on the region. During this period, they tend to move into shallow waters.

In the summer months, walleye often go deeper during the heat of the day, so fishing at dawn or dusk is ideal. In the fall, they will again move to shallower waters as they prepare for winter.

Weather conditions also play a role; overcast days can lead to better walleye activity. Water temperatures between 60°F and 70°F are often considered optimal for walleye fishing.

For bait, consider using jigs, live bait such as minnows, or crankbaits that mimic their natural prey. Remember to check local regulations for specific seasons and limits. Happy fishing!
