Saturday the 7th marked the official opening of walleye fishing in Wisconsin, and the daily limit on Green Bay increases from 1 fish to 5, with a minimum size limit of 15 inches. On the Fox River, the limit increases from 1 to 3 fish and no size limit. Perch fishing is still closed, and reopens May 20.
The bite opening day on the Bay was mixed, with a few fish taken along the east shore and more taken near Geanos Reef and north to Pensaukee and Oconto. Up north, the big fish bite continues around Sturgeon Bay, with some fish still in prespawn mode. Smallmouth Bass are being caught in staging areas to the spawn.
Whatever you do, please be safe and take a kid fishing.
