Walleye
Walleye fishing near Negaunee, Michigan, offers a fantastic experience within the diverse lake systems of the Upper Peninsula. While Lake Superior is nearby, focusing on inland lakes like Teal Lake or the Dead River Basin can be particularly rewarding for walleye anglers. Spring and fall are peak seasons. Spring finds walleye moving into shallower water to spawn, making them accessible to anglers using jigs tipped with minnows near inlets and rocky shorelines. Fall fishing heats up as walleye feed aggressively before winter. Try trolling crankbaits along drop-offs and weed edges. Local tip: Pay attention to water clarity, as stained water often calls for brighter colored lures. Access varies by lake, with some offering developed boat launches and others requiring more rugged portages. The walleye here aren't always huge, but the numbers can be excellent, and the scenery is unbeatable.
