Walleye
Walleye in the Merrimack River around Lowell? Absolutely! While not as abundant as some other species, there's a dedicated walleye fishery here. The best time to target them is during the spring and fall, particularly around dawn and dusk when light levels are low. Walleye are light-sensitive and tend to be more active in these conditions. Focus your efforts around areas with current breaks, rocky bottoms, and deeper pools. The stretch of the Merrimack near the Pawtucket Dam can be productive. A local tip is to use jigs tipped with nightcrawlers or minnows, bouncing them along the bottom. Trolling crankbaits that imitate baitfish can also be effective. Be aware that walleye fishing can be challenging, requiring patience and the right presentation. The walleye population is maintained through stocking efforts, so catch and release is encouraged to help sustain the fishery.
