Walleye
If you're looking to hook into some walleye near Schoolcraft, Michigan, you'll want to focus your efforts on the local lakes and rivers, particularly the Portage River system. What makes this area special is the mix of slow-moving rivers and connected lakes, providing diverse walleye habitat. Spring and fall are prime times; walleye are actively feeding as water temperatures change. Spring sees them moving into shallower areas to spawn, while fall finds them fattening up before winter. A local tip: try trolling crankbaits along the edges of weed beds in the Portage River. Also, be aware that water levels can fluctuate, impacting boat access at some of the smaller ramps; check local conditions before heading out. The walleye in this region tend to be good eaters, with a healthy population of smaller to mid-sized fish, although larger specimens are certainly possible. Focus on areas with good current and structure for your best chance at success.
