Walleye Fishing in New York
If you are looking for an exciting and truly memorable walleye
fishing excursion that you won't soon forget, I would suggest
that you schedule a fishing trip with the walleye guide. Whether
you fish the Oswego River, Salmon River or Oneida NY, you
are in for the adventure of a lifetime.
The eastern basin of Lake Ontario is loaded with huge Walleyes.
 From
Oswego Harbor to Black River Bay, there are many miles of
trollable shoreline to catch these fish. The fish enter late
March to early April. Walleye season is closed then to protect
the futures young. The first Saturday in May is the seasons
opener. By this time the fish will have moved back into the
mouths and inlets they originated from.
Come and be a member of our walleye photo album and post
some of your favorite pictures to share with us. Check out
some of these pictures from our drift boat with bundy Walleyes.

Walleye Fishing
Post-spawn Walleye are very hungry and therefore trolling
tactics are very effective. We mainly troll at night when
the Walleye's are feeding the heaviest. These fish are true
trophy size and average 10 pounds. It is not uncommon to catch
trophy 12-13 pound walleyes. But when it comes to their appetite
the walleyes are very similar to us. Some days, they will
go to great lengths to please their bellies by roaming expansive
flats or cruising miles of shoreline in search of a few crayfish
or shiners. Some days, they prefer not to spend a lot of energy
in search of dinner and simply rest on the bottom and wait
for dinner to be come to them.
Big walleyes often avoid primary structures when the fishing
peaks during the day. Walleyes are armed with excellent night
vision, making them more active after dark. This is the best
time to catch walleyes.
We have found the ideal water temperatures along the Lake
Ontario shoreline should be around 49-54 degrees to produce
the most decent walleye fishing. When the bait fish are in
the big hungry fish are following. Stick baits and covering
lots of water has been the key to success.
