About Northern Ontario Walleye Fishing

By Nancy Gardner


People can have different scenarios of fishing the walleye. Some fishermen will go for numbers. Others choose the sizes. There are others who get happier on finding hotpots at the rocky points or at the off shores. The activity of northern Ontario Walleye fishing can get boring when you get single catch after another. You will not succeed to get a large catch by the end of your trip.

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.

When you mount light jigs, hurry up and catch along the shores. Then aggressively retrieve it since these fish are usually aggressive at this time. It is advisable to make use of brighter colors like white, red, chartreuse and yellow. There are some that will come to feed at the jig. They will still come because they get attracted to the bright colors. They become aggravated by these colors. Most of them will be attracted to the white colors.

During daytime and the early spring, fishermen will successfully catch young males. They easily find them in the beds. At this time, the bigger females have already gone to deeper waters. The individuals with interests of having large size fish and not on numbers should find them in areas where they do not spawn. This is better in deeper parts. Bigger females have preference for the deeper parts.

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 will be trolling, you will reach a certain point and hit them. You should get prepared to catch many of them there. Stop the boat here and then start casing. If you troll several times at the place, you will scare them. They will stop feeding and disappear.

If you are normally stubborn in your job, and you are never ready to do new things, then you would never come to appreciate northern fishing. You will hold on to believe that southern waters are better. All fishermen should be aware that around ninety five percent of the fish are in shallower waters during springs. In the afternoon, bigger females tend to move deeper to hide from the sun and the pikes.

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.
