Walleye Fishing Trips
Planning
Walleye Fishing Trips is
one of the funnest things to do. However, I am
certain most fisherman who are planning a fishing trip
don't think about moon phases when they schedule their
fishing vacation.

I
am not going to rehash all that has been
written about moon phases, sunrise and sunsets,
but I can tell you that we lucked out on
our Washington walleye fishing trips
to Lake Roosevelt. Why? Out
of the 10 years we did the house boat vacations
only one week did we miss a full moon. And
that week was miserable for fishing.
Even
if you are planning a Lake Erie Walleye
charter or a Ontario walleye fishing
week it is adviseable to plan your walleye
fishing trips around a full moon. I
love the watch you see to the left because
it gives you the full moon and such
but more importantly it gives you the best
times of the day to fish and we plan our
days around those times.
I
am lucky because my handheld gps unit allows
me to plug in dates and gives me all the
good stuff I need. But out in the boat someone
in our party always has this watch on and
we do plan the day around those times.

Lake
Erie Walleye charters are extremely popular right
now and you should sit down and make a list of walleye
guides and start asking questions. Over at fishing-trips-specialist.com
you will find a pretty good list of questions to ask
any fishing guide and all of them apply. One thing
to consider is if they have package deals like walleye
fishing lodges or do you need to find your own lodging.
One final note, I highly recommend bringing your own
walleye
fishing rods because it's a pain trying to catch
fish using a rod you are not familiar with.

Living
in the Pacific Northwest our walleye fishing trips all
take place on the Columbia River. Lake Roosevelt up
near Spokane acts more like lake walleye fishing in
Minnesota or Canada walleye fishing. About the
only difference is the depth of the lakes in Minnesota
are not nearly as deep as Lake Roosevelt. There
are places that are over 400 ft deep. And
I'm sure it's deeper in places I've never
seen.
Presentations
for walleye change dramatically if you compare Lake
Erie walleye or Lake Ontario walleye and the Columbia
River out west. Regardelss of where you take your
fishing trip, do take into consideration the moon phases.

As
an example of moon phases I will give the results of
my last three trips all centered around the moon phase.
Keep in mind I am basing my fishing trip results
from the watch that gives us good fishing, poor fishing
and good fishing.
It
was a Monday about 2 days after the full moon. We
didn't start fishing until 11 am and our watch told
us it was a good day to fish. We caught 19 walleye
and 11 of them were caught during the window of "best
times". During the window of time during
good times we caught 6 and the last 2 fish were caught
during non peak times.
Exactly
9 days later on my second walleye fishing trips (in
the same waters) I only caught 3 walleye and our watch
predicted a poor fishing day but all the fish were caught
during the "best times of the day" window.
Two
days after that 3 of us went walleye fishing in the
same waters on another poor fishing day and we caught
4 walleye. 3 of them were caught during the "best
time" and the last one was caught during the "good
time".
Whenever
we take a long fishing vacation we always plan our vacation
around the moon phase and so should you.
I
can't stress it enough to contact your local walleye
fishing guides for assistance in all phases of the water
you will fish. We love to hire a guide the first
day of our fishing trip, to learn about various techniques,
bodies of water, etc. Then the rest of the week
we use our own boat. It does cost money but if
it will help you land more fish, then it's work it in
my mind.
Another
trick is to get this free ebook on the "Hotspots"
in Canada and US walleye. If you have any experience
with Bay of Quinte walleye fishing please contact us.
Same applies if you have taken a Lake Erie walleye
fishing trip, Lake Erie Walleye charters, Lake Erie
walleye fishing lodges, etc. We appreciate it.
