Walleye
While not as commonly targeted as salmonids in the immediate vicinity of Ellison Bay, Walleye can be found in nearby Green Bay and some of the shallower bays along the Door County Peninsula. Focus your efforts in the spring and fall, when water temperatures are cooler and Walleye are more active. Look for areas with rocky bottoms, weed beds, and submerged timber. Trolling crankbaits, jigging with plastics, or using live bait rigs are effective techniques. A helpful hint: focus on areas with current, as Walleye often congregate in these spots to ambush prey. Remember to check the Wisconsin DNR regulations for size and bag limits, as they can vary depending on the specific location. While the Walleye fishery in this region may require a bit of exploration, the rewards can be well worth the effort, with the potential for catching some quality fish.
