Walleye
Walleye fishing near Elkhorn, Wisconsin, requires a bit of strategic planning, as they aren't as abundant as other species. Lake Geneva, a larger body of water nearby, is your most promising option for targeting walleye. Spring (after ice-out) and fall (late September through November) are generally the best times to target them, as they move into shallower water to spawn or feed. Focus on areas with rocky bottoms, points, and submerged structure. Jigging with minnows or crankbaits are popular and effective techniques. Trolling along weed lines can also produce results. Be prepared for some competition, as Lake Geneva is a popular fishing destination. Check local fishing reports for the most up-to-date information on walleye activity. A local tip: Walleye can be sensitive to light, so focus your efforts during low-light conditions or at night. Use lighted bobbers or trolling techniques with lighted lures after dark. Remember to check specific regulations for Lake Geneva, as they may differ from statewide rules.
