Walleye Fishing in Millington
Walleye fishing near Millington, Michigan, presents a unique challenge, but it can be rewarding. The Cass River is your primary target, though it's not a traditional walleye hotspot. Focus your efforts during the spring and fall months when water temperatures are cooler, and walleye activity increases. The stretch of the Cass River downstream from Millington towards Frankenmuth can be productive. Look for deeper holes and areas with current breaks. Trolling with crankbaits or jigging with minnows are effective techniques. Be mindful of the river's flow; it can be swift at times, requiring heavier weights. A local tip is to check with the Millington hardware store for the latest fishing reports and bait recommendations. Walleye in this area tend to be smaller, but persistence can pay off with a decent catch.
