Where are some good places to go fishing for walleye in Pennsylvania?

Walleye fishing is at its best in Pennsylvania. Here there is virtually nothing this elusive fish will not eat. At the top of the menu list are small crustaceans, worms and insects. For the most part, Pennsylvania walleye hang out in deep water depths. This is where they find security and can easily hide out while still observing the general action of the area. Peak times to fish for Pennsylvania walleye are sundown to midnight. This is especially true during the hot summer months. Walleye do not like staying near the surface when the sun is shining. For these times of day, they retreat towards deeper waters. Primary bait selections for catching Pennsylvania walleye are live bait, crank bait, spoons and small spinner baits. Also work plastic worms and grubs into the bait mixture for more positive results. There are a variety of water locations in Pennsylvania that offers healthy stock of walleye fish. The state record walleye was caught in the Allegheny River weighing in at 17 pounds, 9 ounces. Start a Pennsylvania walleye hunt in Warren, Pennsylvania at the Allegheny Reservoir. This water body is a massive 12,000 acres in size and sits on the north border of the state. Almost as large is the Pymatunning Lake. This water body is 14,600 acres and sits on the western side of the state in Linesville, Pennsylvania. Next on the list is Shenango River Lake that stands at an impressive 11,000 acres in size. This walleye hot spot is located in the north-west portion of the state in Clark, Pennsylvania. The remainder of Pennsylvania’s water bodies is significantly smaller than these three giants. However, that does not affect the amount of walleye one could pull out of the Pennsylvania waters. For more information check out a local fishing spot for other places to fish for walleye.
