Walleye
Walleye fishing near Ellettsville, Indiana, centers around larger reservoirs like Lake Monroe. This sprawling lake, with its diverse structure and fluctuating water levels, provides ample habitat for walleye. Spring and fall are generally considered the best times to target walleye, as they move into shallower water to spawn or feed. Trolling crankbaits along submerged points and drop-offs is a popular technique. Jigging with minnows or plastic grubs can also be effective, especially around structure. A local tip: pay attention to the thermocline during the summer months, as walleye will often congregate in cooler water. Lake Monroe can get crowded, especially on weekends, so consider fishing during the week or exploring less-traveled areas. Walleye in Lake Monroe can reach impressive sizes, so be prepared for a good fight. Always check the current fishing regulations for size and bag limits before heading out.
