Walleye – the crown jewel of Lake Erie. These golden-eyed beauties are what bring anglers from all over to our neck of the woods. Known for their tasty fillets and challenging fight, walleye are the ultimate freshwater game fish. They tend to school up, which means when you find 'em, you're in for some fast action. Spring and fall are prime time for walleye fishing on Lake Erie, but don't count out the summer months – that's when you can land some real monsters lurking in the deeper, cooler waters.
Walleye behavior is fascinating stuff. These fish are light-sensitive, which is why we hit the water early. They're most active during low-light conditions, making dawn and dusk prime feeding times. In the spring, you'll find them in shallower waters as they come in to spawn. As the water warms up, they head for deeper, cooler areas. This is where Captain Ken's know-how really shines – he'll have you on the fish no matter the season.
Size-wise, Lake Erie walleye are no joke. The average catch ranges from 2-5 pounds, but don't be surprised if you hook into a 10-pounder or bigger. The current state record stands at a whopping 16.19 pounds – now that's a fish story worth telling!
What makes walleye so exciting to catch? First off, they're not pushovers. These fish put up a good fight, with head shakes and deep runs that'll test your skills. Then there's the thrill of the chase – figuring out where they're hiding and what they're biting on is half the fun. And let's not forget the payoff – walleye are some of the best-eating freshwater fish out there. Nothing beats the satisfaction of bringing home a cooler full of fish for a fresh shore lunch or to stock up the freezer.
Alright, let's cut to the chase – if you're looking for a walleye fishing trip that delivers the goods, Captain Ken's Morning Walleye Trolling Extravaganza is where it's at. We're talking world-class fishing on one of the Great Lakes, with a guide who knows these waters like the back of his hand. You'll come away with new skills, great memories, and hopefully a bunch of fish to show for it.

Walleye are a real treat to target on Lake Erie. These golden-olive predators typically run 15-25 inches and put up a stubborn fight. We usually find them hanging around rocky structure or suspended over deeper water, especially during summer. They're most active at dawn and dusk when their specialized eyes give them an edge. Fall's the prime time as walleye fatten up for winter, but we catch them year-round. Folks love walleye fishing for the challenge and the excellent table fare - their flaky white meat is hard to beat. To land one, we'll troll with crankbaits or nightcrawler harnesses. Here's a local tip: vary your trolling speed to trigger more strikes. Sometimes a sudden acceleration gets them to bite. Whether you're after a trophy or a delicious dinner, walleye are one of Erie's top gamefish.
