Seasonal Activity Chart
Walleye
Walleye fishing near Shippingport, PA centers on the Ohio River. This section of the river offers decent walleye fishing, particularly during the spring and fall migrations. Walleye tend to concentrate in areas with current breaks, submerged structure, and near the dams. Trolling crankbaits or jigging with minnows are popular and effective techniques. Spring, especially after the spawn, is a great time to target walleye as they recover and actively feed. Fall is also productive as they prepare for winter. Access to the river is available via several public boat ramps in the area. A local tip: Pay close attention to the river's water level and clarity. Walleye prefer slightly stained water, and fishing can be tougher when the water is crystal clear. Check local fishing reports for the most up-to-date information on water conditions and walleye activity. While trophy-sized walleye are less common, you can consistently find good numbers of eater-sized fish.
