Alberta Walleye Fishing Guide
Walleye are without a doubt one of the most popular game fish in Alberta. You'll find prime walleye waters throughout the province. The meat is excellent and the highlight of any walleye trip in Alberta is enjoying a famous shore lunch.
Strong fighters, walleyes stay deep and wage a determined battle. In most northern waters the walleye feeds most actively at sunrise and sunset and night fishing can be very effective. The larger, mature fish will come into shallow rock shoals and around islands to feed and many trophys have been taken still or drift fishing. Casting, drifting, trolling and even downrigging can be effective techniques for fishing walleye. Walleye will respond to a wide range of natural and artificial bait with live minnows and weighted jigs being a favourite. Remember, where there's one, there's usually a school of walleye nearby ready. Canadian Record: 22 lbs. 4 ounces.
