Walleye
Looking to hook into some walleye in Nevada? Head to Yerington, where nearby Walker Lake offers a unique desert walleye experience. Walker Lake's slightly saline waters create a distinct environment that can influence walleye behavior. Spring and fall are prime times, as the water temperatures are more comfortable for these fish. In the spring, focus on areas near stream inlets as walleye move in to spawn. In the fall, they'll be actively feeding to prepare for winter. Be aware that Walker Lake's water levels can fluctuate, so check conditions before you go. A Nevada fishing license is required, and you should familiarize yourself with any specific regulations for Walker Lake, particularly regarding size and bag limits. Access is available via improved boat launches, but keep an eye out for strong winds that can pick up quickly on the open water.
