Walleye are the undisputed kings of Lake Erie, and for good reason. These golden-eyed predators can grow to impressive sizes, with trophy fish pushing well over 10 pounds. Fall is prime time for big walleye action as these fish go on a feeding frenzy before winter sets in. They're aggressive, they fight hard, and man, do they taste good (if you decide to keep a few for the table). What makes walleye so exciting to catch? It's the combination of their size, their fight, and the challenge of figuring out where they're holding and what they want to eat. Plus, there's nothing quite like the feeling of reeling in a fish that might be bigger than anything you've caught before.

Kenny's "Lake Erie Walleye Slam — Trophy Edition" isn't just a fishing trip – it's your shot at Lake Erie glory. You'll be using top-notch gear, proven techniques, and benefiting from years of local knowledge to target some of the biggest walleye swimming. Whether you're looking to scratch that competitive itch or just want to experience the thrill of hooking into a true monster, this is your chance. Spots fill up fast, especially during prime trophy season, so don't wait. Give Capt. Kenny a call and lock in your date. Who knows? You might just end up with the fish of a lifetime and a story you'll be telling for years to come.
Walleye are the prized catch of Lake Erie, known for their golden-olive color and those distinctive reflective eyes. These freshwater predators typically run 15-30 inches and love hanging around rocky areas or weed edges. During the day, you'll find them deeper, but they move shallow to feed at night. Fall's your best bet for trophy walleye as they fatten up before winter. Anglers go crazy for walleye because of their hard-fighting nature and top-notch table fare. That flaky white meat is hard to beat. When you're out there, try slow-trolling with live bait rigs - minnows or nightcrawlers on a long leader. Keep it near the bottom and you'll be in business. One local trick: on calm days, look for subtle surface disturbances. That often means walleye are pushing bait up from below. Cast a jig to those spots and hold on tight!
