By Juana Gamble


The fun of sport fishing is in capturing your target species. The perfect season for Red River walleye fishing offers great rewards and excitement. Success depends on how best you master the tricks that have been tested over the years. Activity along the river depends on the season, availability of food and weather conditions.

Possessing the right fishing gear counts when you seek success with the walleye. There are regulations on types of hooks and their sizes as set by fishery authorities in the area. This information is available to the public and published on their departmental website. It ensures that you remain within the confines of the law and avoid conflict with the authorities.

Temperature of the water and clarity determine the amount of fish in the area. It also determines their appetite for your baits and ease with which they bite your hooks. They appear on the surface at particular hours and then disappear at others depending on activity and time of day.

Reports from some fishers indicate that they made their best catch in the afternoon. The timing is around 2.00 pm or what would be described as early afternoon. Sporting a school of walleye increases your possibility of making a catch. This is the time they are likely to be less engaged and therefore more playful to appear on the surface. They also may be coming to bask in the sun.

The walleye observes a particular migration pattern that determines its numbers. These seasons are worth considering to increase your rate of success. The numbers out and about before winter increases as they feed with the aim of building their body reserve in readiness for the coming season.

Appetite for particular baits depends on the fish species. Specialists have indicated the best baits for walleyes which directs sport fishers who seek to improve on their rate of success. Clear waters are another enticing factor for the fish. The area you are targeting must be perfect either as a feeding ground or migration route.

There are dedicated websites and journals that guide sport fishers on the best location and timing. They will indicate when schools have been sighted at a particular place and predict behavior and sighting in another location. This information ensures that organize your plans in order to time perfectly.

Different fish species swim with or against the current with changing seasons. The walleye is best caught when trolling down stream. This helps you to achieve the right pace in line with the flowing water. Your speed will allow you to cover sufficient ground in a short time. The positioning of the bait in this instance allows you to capture more and easily.

Your success rate varies depending on how you position the bait in relation to the riverbed. Taking it too low exposes it to the risk of getting caught at the bottom in rocks, tree stumps and sunken objects. It is recommended that the bait be several inches above the floor.

The baits should be checked on regular basis. Some require straightening because of the beating they receive under water. Be keen when you troll so that you can relief the hooks when you have made a catch. Trolling upstream depends on the strength of the current. It is likely to take your fish off the hook.
