Walleye Fishing
Walleye and sauger guide trips on Midwest lakes and rivers.
Walleye are the signature gamefish of the upper Midwest and the inland Northeast, and the guided walleye industry is among the most established freshwater sectors in the country. Lake Erie supports the largest guided walleye charter fleet in North America, with operations running from Toledo, Ohio through Erie, Pennsylvania. Mille Lacs, Lake of the Woods, and Leech Lake anchor the Minnesota guide industry, while Lake Winnebago in Wisconsin, Lake Kabetogama and Rainy Lake on the Canadian border, and the Missouri River reservoirs in the Dakotas support strong guided walleye trips. Mississippi River pool fishing for walleye and sauger draws guides from Iowa down through Missouri. A guided walleye trip provides the boat, electronics tuned for finding suspended schools, and the live bait and rigging of leeches, crawler harnesses, jigging spoons, and lead-core trolling that change with seasonal patterns. Most trips run as half-day or full-day charters, with multi-boat operations common during the spring and fall peak periods.
