Walleye
Walleye in the Cambridge area? Absolutely. The Charles River, though often overlooked, holds a surprising population of walleye. They aren't as abundant as in larger, more traditional walleye fisheries, but dedicated anglers can find success. Focus your efforts around the deeper pools and areas with current breaks, especially near the numerous bridges and dams that dot the river. The best times to target walleye are during the spring and fall, particularly at dawn and dusk. Night fishing can also be very effective. Jigging is a popular and productive technique, using brightly colored jigs tipped with live minnows or soft plastic trailers. Another effective method is trolling crankbaits along the deeper channels. A good access point is the area around the Boston University Bridge, where there's ample parking and shoreline access. Be mindful of boat traffic and other recreational users of the river. Walleye in the Charles tend to be opportunistic feeders, so experiment with different presentations to find what they're keying on.
