Walleye
Targeting walleye in the Minneapolis area means exploring the diverse river systems and lakes that surround the city. The Mississippi River, particularly pools 1 and 2, offer excellent walleye fishing, especially during the spring and fall migrations. The Minnesota River is another productive option. Look for walleye near current breaks, dams, and rocky structures. Jigging with minnows or plastics is a classic technique, but trolling crankbaits can also be effective, especially in the larger pools of the Mississippi. Early morning and late evening are prime times for walleye. Access to the Mississippi River is available through numerous public boat ramps and parks. Be aware of the river current and any navigational hazards. A local tip: pay attention to water clarity, as walleye tend to prefer slightly stained water. Also, check the Minnesota DNR regulations for specific size and bag limits, as they can vary depending on the water body.
