Walleye
If you're looking for Walleye in Northeast Ohio, consider exploring the Portage Lakes near Norton. While not as renowned as Lake Erie, these lakes offer a decent Walleye population, especially in the early spring and late fall. Walleye tend to move into shallower water during these times to spawn or feed. Try targeting areas around the islands and channels connecting the lakes, as these are known Walleye hangouts. Early morning and late evening are prime times, and trolling crankbaits or casting jigs tipped with minnows can be effective. Be aware that the Portage Lakes are popular recreational spots, so expect boat traffic, especially on weekends. A public boat launch is available at the north end of Long Lake off of State Route 619, but parking can fill up quickly. Walleye in the Portage Lakes tend to run smaller than their Lake Erie cousins, but a dedicated angler can certainly find some keepers.
