Green Bay walleye fishing is slowly on an upswing, with good days and tough days still the rule and not
the exception. The mud trolling bite has been the most inconsistent. Fish are definitely there, following
schools of alewife and perch, but they’re not always cooperating. The best presentation has been
trolling #7 flicker or #9 Flicker Minnows in shades of purple on 2oz snap weights behind planer boards.
Spinner/crawler harnesses are taking fish too. The best approach is to locate fish first with sonar, then
set up to run baits slightly above the fish. Jig fishermen are finding walleyes on rocks, with the areas of
Chaudior’s Dock, North-South reef, Macco’s Reef, Volks Reef, Bayshore and Vincent Point are all putting
out some fish. Ripper minnows, shiver minnows, jig/crawler, and spoons are all working at times. Pulling
bottom bouncers with slow death rigs also caught some fish. The Walleye in all areas are certainly
moody because of the bait that is lingering around the Bay.
Perch fishing has been good, with areas around Oconto and Bayshore seeing good catches. Minnows,
hellgrammites, and crawler pieces were best baits. Musky fishing still slow, give it another week and you will do fine.
Yah, only at Smokeys!!!
If you go, please be safe, and take a kid fishing
