Anglers have been having success trolling spinner rigs with crawlers and crankbaits for these fish. Using planer boards with snap weights or lead core to help get down deeper.

Walleye fishing has been good in the harbor. Anglers are having success dragging spinner rigs and crankbaits for these fish. Look for fish in five to ten feet of water. Out on the big lake walleyes have been sitting in fifteen to twenty-five feet of water. Anglers are catching them on crankbaits and deep diving stickbaits. Use planer board to spread out your baits. Look for stained water and fish along the mudline.
