Catching Walleye On Your Canada Fishing Trips 

If you are planning a walleye Canada fishing trip, you want to choose a location that will provide you with the best resources to hook this sought after fish. Two popular areas in Canada are Ontario and Manitoba. Not only will you find the walleye biting, but you will also find the pike, salmon and the trout are just as easy to catch. If you use the right bait for hooking a walleye, you should have no trouble at all bringing home the fish. Whether you plan your trip at a fishing camp, a lodge or a luxury resort, you will have the time of your life as you experience the fight of catching a walleye.
Using the right bait along with the rod, reel and test line, you should have a bite in no time. Many of the lakes in Canada are large and open for miles. You can sit in a boat and relax with your rod as the guide takes to the areas where the walleye are going to be I larger groups. They may even take you to the weedy areas where you want to use a certain pound test line and bait. The weedy areas are where the walleye like to hide when the sun is bright and the waters calm. In order to fish the weeds, you will want to use the drop and sit method of fishing.
One thing to keep in mind is the limit of walleye you can catch. If you have a conservation license, you can have a limit of four and six with a sport license. The equipment used to catch walleye include the jigs, which are a quarter ounce or smaller and the rubber color is what is important more so than the jig head color. If you fish the walleye at night or even in the spring months, you will find the walleye in shallower water and then you would use a three-eights or smaller light colored jig.
When you plan your walleye Canada fishing trip, you will want to watch the weather. The best time to catch walleye as everyone finds out is when the sun is hidden by the clouds and the also if there is a breeze. The walleye will come closer to the top of the water when it is cloudy and when the water ripples because of the breeze. These are the days to catch a walleye instead of fishing the weedy areas.
If you want to do some Canada walleye fishing, you just need to find a location that will provide for some great fishing. Because the majority of the lakes in Canada are clean and full of food sources for walleye, they grow larger than you see in some United States lakes. Because of some of the lodges in the area having catch and release policies, these fish live to be larger and older than if they were plucked out of the lakes for decades. There is an abundance of walleye in Canada.
