I think the article in the Post Register[crazy] about the walleye spawning and moving up into Willow Creek was a little early to be saying that. With the water temps and runoff cold water it will be probably another 3 weeks or so if the weather stays around normal temps for the highs and lows.
I would guess early to mid May would be right for them to move. However, if we get highs in the 70's everyday for the next month that could change.
Also if the story they published about a 26 inch walleye being gill netted is true walleye are there forever. The only way to remove them is to poison the lake which I doubt they would. I think the walleye will do good on the perch and sucker minnows up there.
It would be nice to see a walleye fishery close to home. Salmon Falls Res is to long a trip for a day run.
