Seasonal Activity Chart
Walleye
Walleye fishing in the Klamath Falls area centers around the Klamath River and especially Upper Klamath Lake. This lake, with its shallow, expansive flats and weedy areas, provides ideal habitat for walleye. Spring and fall are peak seasons, with the pre-spawn and post-spawn periods offering the best opportunities. Trolling crankbaits along the edges of weed beds or jigging along rocky drop-offs are popular techniques. A key piece of advice is to pay attention to wind direction, as walleye tend to congregate on the windward side of the lake where the water is churned up and baitfish are concentrated. Local anglers often use bottom bouncers with worm harnesses or minnow-imitating lures. The walleye in Upper Klamath Lake can be quite large, with some exceeding 10 pounds, so be sure to bring appropriate gear.
