walleye location

If a discharge is unavailable in your area, then target moving, and preferably stained water. A wise choice to fish for would be walleyes, sauger or catfish in a river system. About the worst pick you can make is largemouth in a shallow, clear water lake. If you do fish a lake, you'll probably find that points have turned off for bass and walleyes. Fish using points will usually do one of three things after a severe cold front. They'll move from the tip of the point into the corner or inside turn of this structure. These cupped areas seems to give them a better sense of security - a place where they can duck into. The fish will often drop down into deeper water where they will be tough to catch. The best you can hope for is a short spurt of activity, usually taking place later in the day as the weather warms up or otherwise improves. Fish such as bass and walleyes may also hole up in the thickest cover, such as heavy clumps of weeds, will be in conjunction with an inside turn, giving you an even better chance at contacting some fish. Don't give up if you haven't had any action by mid-day. Sometimes, the best fish activity after a front passes occurs in the warmer afternoon hours.
