Spring Walleye Fishing in Door County
Spring is well underway in Door County. We have one Spring Walleye School under our belt and one more coming up next weekend. Water temperatures are starting to come around and hover around the mid 40 degree mark. We have been having some sunny and warm days, which has warmed that temp up almost 10 degrees plus in the last week! We have been focusing a lot of our time on the West shore, but as that bite starts to become more sporadic, we will transition to our backyard on the East side of the Bay of Green Bay. We are starting to see some post-spawn fish, so if you're still in the market for a big, fat Door County walleye, it's best to focus your efforts in the northern part of the county. We still have some openings this month with Captain Caleb Zorn or Captain Marc Jackson. And, don't forget to book your prime May trip as all three of our captains, Dale, Caleb and Marc are starting to fill up! Tight Lines!
Ice Conditions 2/22/17
Well, all of our permanent shacks are off the ice for now…not sure if we will be able to move them back out, but all we can do is hope for cold enough weather. We are able to walk off some of the public accesses in Sand Bay, Riley's Bay and Little Sturgeon for some walleye and whitefish action. No vehicle traffic on the ice at all right now-including snowmobiles and/or ATV's. If you can get into an area along the shorelines or points that have shove ice, walking out is where it's at! We will continue some of our guided trips on foot for the coming days, and hope to be back in the Vikings soon if weather allows. Always, always, always…safety first! If you're looking for another option to satisfy the fishing urge, the Fox River is open and guys are getting out down there for walleye in their boats! Captain Marc or Captain Caleb might even have the opportunity to take you out down there for a fun jig bite! Stay tuned! Here's a few pics of the great whitefish bite we found this past weekend! We are still able to easily walk to this location for some great action!
