Walleye fishing near Jacksonville, Oregon, is limited, as they aren't a dominant species in the immediate area. However, a dedicated angler willing to travel a bit might find some success. Your best bet is to head east towards larger reservoirs in central or eastern Oregon, where walleye populations are more established. These reservoirs are several hours away from Jacksonville, so plan accordingly. Spring and fall are generally considered the best times for walleye, as they move into shallower water to feed. Jigs, crankbaits, and worm harnesses are popular walleye lures. Be prepared for varied weather conditions, especially in the spring and fall. Remember to check the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW) website for specific regulations regarding walleye fishing in the reservoirs you plan to visit, as regulations can vary.
