Walleye

Walleye fishing near Glenwood, Indiana, can be a rewarding, albeit challenging, pursuit. While not as abundant as in some other parts of the state, Walleye can be found in some of the larger reservoirs and river systems in the general vicinity. Spring and fall are again the prime times to target them. In the spring, focus on areas near spawning grounds, such as rocky points and inlets. In the fall, walleye will move deeper as the water cools. Trolling crankbaits or jigging along the bottom are effective techniques. Access to these reservoirs is usually good, with several public boat ramps available. A local tip: Water clarity can vary significantly, so be prepared to adjust your lure selection accordingly. In stained water, opt for brighter colors or lures with rattles. Also, pay attention to the thermocline, as walleye often suspend just above it. Be sure to consult the Indiana Department of Natural Resources website for specific regulations regarding walleye size and possession limits.
