Suggestions for fishing in the Columbia River For Walleye

Can you give me some suggestions for fishing the columbia river for walleye?

When it comes to fishing for walleye in the Columbia River, there are those individuals and fish anglers who claim this is one of the most difficult places to do just that. However, many of them agree it is not impossible. Amazingly, when water temperatures reach a certain degree, the Walleye will usually begin to spawn. This is where the walleye will group together and usually spend a lot of time in deeper waters. Also, in areas where the walleye know there is a good food supply, the walleye can also be found. A great time to actually attempt to catch walleye in the Columbia River is when the water is between 44-46 degrees. In many cases this is the best opportunity for a fisherman or fish angler to catch quite a bit of walleye out of the Columbia River’s waters. Technique is also important. What might work for one individual may prove to be useless for another. So keeping this in consideration is a key too. In other words if you have a buddy that has been catching walleye with lures and you simply soak the lures and catch nothing, you should obviously try something else. Another little factor in fishing in the Columbia River is to allow the walleye to run. When the walleye takes the bait and you know it has, don’t reel the line in fast; let the walleye take off a bit and then reel it in. By this time the walleye has not only tried to swallow the bait but also doesn’t fear anything either.
