About the Book

“WALLEYE: A guide to Michigan’s walleye waters,” explores the top walleye fisheries in Michigan.

The author discusses these waters, how to fish for walleye, what to look for, and the best opportunities to fish for walleye.

Chapters include tips specifically for the lakes, rivers and impoundments, lists of accesses, and general and specific information to help you decide when and where to fish. The author also discusses the management efforts used to keep walleye a major sport fish in Michigan’s future.

Many books are written about fishing - the “how-to-do-it” kind - focusing on various species, offering tips on the best tackle to use, as well as fishing techniques. However, few books focus on the quality of walleye fisheries.

It is as comprehensive as possible, with an in-depth listing of walleye fishing prospects that exist in Michigan, including information on nearly 500 walleye lakes, rivers and impoundments.

This book is to serve those who desire to walleye fish, and give them information as to where and what to expect during those opportunities. Every effort has been made to provide accurate data regarding locations and conditions.
