Walleye
Walleye in the Somerville area? While not a renowned walleye destination, the Mystic River watershed does hold a limited population of these tasty fish. The best opportunities exist in the deeper, slower-moving sections of the river and in the larger impoundments like the Mystic Lakes. Focus your efforts during the low light periods of dawn and dusk, particularly in the spring and fall when walleye are most active. Jigging with minnow-imitating plastics or using live bait rigs are effective techniques. Don't overlook the areas around bridges and dams, as these often concentrate fish. Access to the Mystic River can be found at various DCR access points, but be prepared for some challenging shore fishing conditions. Walleye in this system tend to be smaller, so practice catch and release to help maintain the population.
