Walleye
If you're after Walleye near Bay Shore, Michigan, Lake Michigan and its connected waters offer some exciting opportunities. The best time to target walleye here is typically during the spring and fall months when water temperatures are cooler and the fish are more active. These fish tend to congregate near structure and areas with current. Try trolling crankbaits or using jigs tipped with live bait near submerged humps and drop-offs. A local's secret is to focus on areas where rivers and streams enter the lake, as these areas often hold baitfish that attract walleye. The walleye population in this area can fluctuate depending on spawning success, but there are always some nice fish to be caught. Remember to check the current Michigan fishing regulations for size and bag limits. The public boat launch in Bay Shore provides convenient access.
