Seasonal Activity Chart

Walleye
Walleye anglers around DeForest will find the best action on the larger lakes nearby, particularly Lake Mendota and Lake Wisconsin. These lakes offer diverse walleye habitat, from rocky reefs and points to weed beds and deeper basins. The spring walleye run is legendary, as these fish congregate in shallower areas to spawn. Jigging with minnows or leeches is a popular and effective tactic during this time. As the water warms, try trolling crankbaits along weed edges or deeper structure. Fall is another excellent time to target walleye, as they feed heavily before winter. Be aware that these lakes can be challenging to navigate due to wind and boat traffic, so pay attention to the weather forecast and exercise caution. Several public boat launches provide access, but they can get crowded, especially on weekends. Check the local fishing reports for the latest information on walleye activity and water conditions.
