Walleye
While not a traditionally known walleye destination, the Taunton River watershed in Massachusetts holds a small, but dedicated walleye fishery. While stocking efforts are limited or nonexistent, rumors persist of holdover populations in some of the deeper, slower-moving sections of the river and connected lakes. Targeting walleye here requires patience and persistence. The best times to try are during the spring spawning run and again in the fall as water temperatures cool. Focus your efforts around areas with structure, such as submerged timber, rock piles, and drop-offs. Fishing at night or during low-light conditions is often most productive. Local anglers suggest using jigs tipped with live bait or slow-rolling crankbaits near the bottom. Be aware that walleye are not abundant in this area, so catch-and-release is encouraged to help maintain the population. Due to the uncommon nature of this species in the area, be sure to confirm identification before harvesting any fish, to avoid accidental take of similar looking species.
