When you are fishing for walleye the weather has the most influence
where walleyes will be located and how active they will be feeding.
Take for instance when weather conditions are warm and sunny, most
walleyes will head to deeper waters or find underwater structures to
stay cool and shield their eyes.When the sun is out with no overcast
and very little breeze, the walleye will head to the thick weed beds
and underwater structure and deep for cover because the surface water
is way to warm, so you will have to do your walleye fishing in these
areas.
If when you get out on the water the sun is
bright overhead but there is a good wave chop, you will find walleye
anywhere. The waves cool and turn the water and they redirect the suns
rays. One of the very best times to catch your walleye limit is right
before a storm when the sky is dark and overcast and the waves are
active. Walleyes tend to become very aggressive at these times. The
walleye fish is a very unpredictable species of species to fish for
sometimes. Using the weather conditions of any particular day is a good
way to decide on your walleye fishing starting point for the day.
The
weather is just one indicator when you are trying to locate walleye. It
is by no means always 100%. You should still use your GPS fishing
finder also. But if you use these two methods to put you on fish you
can save time and increase your chances of getting your walleye catch
limit. But remember the walleye species may surprise you . Do not
depend 100% on these two walleye fishing indicators to put you on fish.
Be prepared to fish in other areas if these two indicators fail. Like I
have said walleye can be very finicky and unpredictable fish at times.
I think this one of the reasons they are one of the most sought after
game fish.

As a rule of
thumb walleye move closer to shore and into shallow water in the cooler
months and farther out to deep water in the summer months, but remember
that walleye are a very unpredictable fish and I have caught them close
to shore in the dead of summer. Normally, Walleyes will move when there
is a drop in water temperatures and there is a change in weather
conditions such as a storm moving in or a overcast cold day, and by all
means use these indicators for locating fish, just don't depend on
these indicators 100% be prepared to use other methods to fish for
walleye if necessary.
