Minnesota’s walleye season is an angler's dream, running from May through November. Each season brings its own exciting opportunities:

Spring: As the ice clears, walleyes move into shallow water to spawn, making this one of the most productive times of the year. We’ll be jigging live bait along rocky points and weed edges where walleye congregate.

Summer: As the water warms, walleye head deeper. This is when we shift to sharpshooting deeper structure. It’s the perfect time to chase after both numbers and size.

Fall: As temperatures drop, trophy walleye become more active again, and their feeding frenzies can lead to some of the best fishing of the year. This is the prime time for trophy hunters looking for their biggest fish of the season.

Regardless of the season, our guides stay dialed into the bite, so you can be confident we’ll put you in the right spot at the right time.
