Successful Northern Ontario Walleye Fishing

By Nancy Gardner


There are several scenarios of walleye fishing. Some individuals go for numbers while others go for the sizes. Others feel happier when they find hotspots at rocky points or off the shoal. Here they get to catch small walleyes. Catching one after another in Northern Ontario walleye fishing seems boring. You will not have a large catch before your trip is over.

Fishermen should be wiser and know that these types of fish prefer to live within river currents or closer to shores during spring. If you want to catch them, you should probably go past ten feet. In north Canadian lakes the fish that do not spawn in rivers go to shores. Most will be done with spawning at the end of fishing season. They however hang around to protect younger fish.

Once you have mounted the light jigs, be fast to catch them in the shores. Be aggressive to retrieve them because the fish are also aggressive this time. You will get better catch if you use bright colors such as chartreuse, yellow, red and white. Some of them will come there to feed. Others will be there because of bright colors. These colors tend to aggravate them. Most like white.

During the day and at early spring, fishermen mostly catch the smaller males. They can easily be found at the river beds. During the day, the big females go to the deeper waters. If you are really interested in their size and not the numbers, go fishing in the places where these fish were not spawning. Move deeper than fifteen feet. The bigger females prefer to be here.

You also need to have awareness of special spots where you can find fish in large numbers. If you go fishing in the spring, remember to wear original and small Rapala. You then will slowly troll along shore lines. The fish are present at about four feet inside the waters. Remember that the best spring colors are red, chartreuse, blue and fire tiger.

As you continue trolling, you will get to a point where you will hit them. Begin preparations because most are here. Stop the boat there and begin casing. Do not troll severally at that point because you will likely scare them. They immediately stop the feeding and begin to disappear.

If you are that stubborn fisherman who is not ready to try anything new then you will not appreciate fishing in the north. You will believe that the south has better catch. The fishermen ought to know that during early spring; ninety five percent of these fish are shallower in the waters. During afternoons, the bigger females move deeper in order to protect themselves from the pikes and the scorching sun.

During periods of summer, they will go deeper. Some stay in the river mouths and in the layoff areas of rocks. Rock drops are their other favorite area. For the lakes with flat structure, they will tend to hide in thick weeds to get protection. At this time, the sun is hot. This is why they disappear from the shores.
