To get a jump on a little early season walleye action, you might think about giving a river a try.
Rivers can offer some phenomenal fishing opportunities, especially during the early spring period.
While tremendous catches are often made, it does takes a little understanding to get the most out of situation. Factors that must be considered are water temperature, levels, and clarity. They all play a role in where walleyes will be found, and just how active they ll be. Rivers open up much sooner than lakes do, and warm up even faster. Because of that, everything is accelerated, with spawning taking place weeks ahead of icebound lakes.
