Wondering what you guys think as far as the overall walleye population goes.  UP-DOWN-Sideways?  In comparison to other years. 

Posted

I know a big group of guys that go up to Wishbone every year in the fall, I think there is about 25-30 of them that go at once. This year and last year have been the worst years for them. Some of them have been going up for 20 years. That's about all the input I can give doesn't mean the population is down.

We were there June 11-17 and caught more walleye, albeit they were 90% cigars, than in any year past and we have been going for almost 40 years now.  I don't think we have improved much as walleye fishermen so it must be a population boom (which bodes well for the future).

There's a ton of eyes in Cass.  Some major year classes coming up so it should just get better.

      Sounds like a nice last day.  I like how you photoshop a different shirt on that same picture the last few years!  🤣

      Beautiful day on Vermilion Sunday for the last day of walleye season.  Lots of people were fishing in portables, or out in the open.  Was entertaining watching many of the wheel and skid houses being pulled off of the lake.  Checked half a dozen spots where wheel houses were removed and didn't find any trash at all.  Sounds like people are getting the message.  I may go out on the lake when the snow is melted to do a further check and cleanup if needed.   Fishing was average for this time of the year.  Had a decent bite from 2pm to 4pm when I caught my biggest eye (pictured 22 inch).  Decent finish to a good season.  Now on to lake trout fishing.   Hope everyone had an enjoyable and successful ice fishing season.  Going to be a long time before this year's open water season.

      What a difference a day makes.  Fishing was very slow today.  Biggest I caught was only 13 inches.  Marked a lot of fish but couldn't get very many to bite.   The wind was very strong today and did cause a little bit of drifting, but travel is still good on the latke.  Just avoid the snow banks and drifts.  Saw one house get pulled off the lake, and didn't see any new houses come out before I left the lake at 4pm.  Lots of snowmobiles and trailers in Tower.  At least the city and lake will be busy with those.   Good luck fishing if you go out the last weekend of the winter season.
