This past week of Walleye fishing on Green Bay has been good to above average. Most locations reports
have come in of good catches to limits at times. Remember this time of year winds play a huge factor,
moving the warm water around and with it, hungry Walleye will follow. Most reports were still of the
best fishing being less than 10 feet of water.
University Bay has seen an increase in good fishing with most anglers targeting Walleye trolling. Both
Cranks like #7 Flicker Minnows and Worm Harnesses have been producing now that the water temps
have been steadily around 60 Degrees. The best colors have been purple and white combinations.
Suamico to Pensaukee along the West shore has also been productive with both Harnesses or Cranks.
Many anglers have also had good success still casting Jigs/plastics or purple hair jigs up the shallow
waters of those areas. Watch your electronics to find fish along the shallow sand areas then cast to
locate the active fish.
Green Bay’s East shore from Vincent Point all the way to Shoemaker point has seen good to above
catches like most areas, especially days with some wind blowing into the shore. The Trollers there have
reported better action running Flicker Shads or Minnows vs Harnesses. If the wind congregates warm
water in pockets don’t be afraid to cast your Hair Jigs in those areas as fish have been concentrated in
the warmer water zones at times.
Small Mouth Bass action up in the areas of Little Sturgeon, Rielys and Sand Bay od Door County has been
outstanding. Jerk baits and Ned Rigs have been 2 great bait choices. Folks throwing Marabou Hair Jigs
were also reporting good action.
Reminder that Green Bay Perch fishing opens Tuesday May 20 th . Most folks fishing shallow for Walleye
the last few weeks especially along the West Shore of Green Bay have reported many incidental catches
of Perch mixed in with the Walleye. Good luck all you Perch anglers this week!
If you go, please be safe, and take a kid fishing
