Walleye
Walleye fishing in Schenectady centers around the mighty Mohawk River. This historic waterway offers diverse habitat that walleye thrive in, including rocky structure, deep pools, and current breaks. The best times to target walleye here are in the spring and fall. Spring, particularly after the ice melts, sees walleye moving upstream to spawn. Fall finds them feeding aggressively before winter. Consider fishing the areas near dams and bridges, as these often create current breaks that walleye use as ambush points. Jigging with minnows or using crankbaits are effective techniques. Public access to the Mohawk River is available through several boat launches and shoreline access points within the city. Be mindful of the river's current, especially when fishing from a boat. Walleye in the Mohawk River can reach impressive sizes, so be prepared for a good fight, and always check the current fishing regulations.
