Shallow shoreline flats, near island or shore humps, and warm water bays can be key stopping points. Spring fish are wanderers, a day or two here, then gone. As the sun rises higher in the sky, the heat gradually warms the waters and the eco system moves towards full tilt. Consequently, walleyes have more food options. Additionally, females are regrouping and relating to predictable structures.
Fishing becomes very consistent.
Let s look at some of my favorite locations on the northern part of the Woods. My favorite is the rocky shorelines of islands. Most all of this section of the Woods is rocky, which is either one of two basic types. There s round rocks, from small to boulders. Then there is a good amount of granite wall rock with some broken pieces dotting the shore.
