Walleye anglers visiting Champlin, Minnesota, will find the Mississippi River to be the primary walleye fishing location. While not known as a walleye 'hotspot' compared to some northern lakes, the river still holds a decent population, especially during specific times of the year. The best time to target walleye here is in the spring, immediately after the ice melts and during the walleye spawn. They tend to congregate in areas with current breaks and rocky bottoms as they move upstream. Jigging with minnows or artificial lures is a popular and effective technique. Trolling crankbaits along the river channels can also produce results. Focus your efforts near the confluence of the Rum River and the Mississippi, as this area often concentrates walleye. Be aware of the river's current and adjust your presentation accordingly. Also, check local regulations regarding walleye size and possession limits, as they can vary. Access is available via several public boat launches along the river.
