Seasonal Activity Chart
Walleye
If you're looking for Walleye in Wisconsin, Washington Island offers a unique angling experience in the waters where Lake Michigan meets Green Bay. This creates a dynamic environment that Walleye thrive in, particularly as they follow seasonal forage migrations. Spring and fall are prime times, coinciding with spawning runs and pre-winter feeding frenzies. Focus your efforts around rocky points and submerged structures, paying close attention to water temperature. Walleye will often hold in specific temperature zones, so adjusting your depth is key. One practical tip: launch from Detroit Harbor and explore the western side of the island, as this area often holds warmer water and abundant baitfish. Natural presentations, such as live bait rigs or slow-trolled crankbaits, tend to outperform artificials. Be prepared to adapt your presentation to the current and water clarity, as conditions can change rapidly.
