Walleye
While Cumberland, Indiana, isn't widely known as a walleye hotspot, there are opportunities to target them in the nearby waterways. Geist Reservoir, a short drive away, is the most prominent walleye fishery in the region. While Geist can be challenging due to its size and boat traffic, persistent anglers can find success. Spring and fall are the best times to target walleye here, as they move shallower to spawn and feed. Trolling crankbaits along the main lake channels or jigging near submerged structure can be effective. A local tip is to pay attention to water clarity; walleye prefer slightly stained water. Many anglers have success trolling worm harnesses behind bottom bouncers. Be sure to check Geist Reservoir's specific regulations regarding size and bag limits, as they can vary. While the walleye population isn't huge, the chance of landing a quality fish keeps anglers coming back.
