Seasonal Activity Chart

Walleye
Walleye fishing around Plattsburgh centers on Lake Champlain, a diverse fishery with varying depths and structure. Spring and fall are your best bets, with the pre-spawn bite in early spring being particularly exciting as walleye move into shallower waters to feed. Focus on areas near spawning grounds, like rocky points and submerged humps. Trolling crankbaits or using jigs tipped with live minnows are proven tactics. Local tip: The Ausable River's mouth can be a hotspot in the spring as walleye migrate upstream. Lake Champlain walleye can be found at various depths, so be prepared to adjust your presentation based on water temperature and clarity. Keep in mind that Lake Champlain is a large body of water, and weather conditions can change rapidly. Always check the marine forecast before heading out, and familiarize yourself with the lake's navigation hazards.
