Walleye
While Pendleton, Indiana, isn't nationally renowned for walleye fishing, the nearby reservoirs and rivers offer some potential for anglers willing to put in the time. Geist Reservoir, though a bit of a drive, is likely your best bet for targeting walleye. Focus on areas with submerged structure, drop-offs, and points. Spring and fall are typically the most productive times to fish for walleye, as they move into shallower water to spawn or feed aggressively before winter. A key local tip: Trolling crankbaits along the edges of the main channel can be effective, especially during low-light conditions. Walleye in these Indiana waters tend to be opportunistic feeders, so experiment with different lure presentations. Be sure to check the Indiana Department of Natural Resources (DNR) regulations for specific size and bag limits.
