18-pound, 2-ounce walleye caught this month on the St. Lawrence River

The walleye are also structure-oriented. In lakes like Saratoga, fish the edges of contour or channel breaks and weed line edges. Also try to find underground humps and rocky rip-rap, and when found, mark them. Those that I talked to said usually during the summer it is good to “run and gun.”
As for bait, they proffered 4-inch minnows, but the majority of walleye anglers are using June Bug spinners with night crawlers. Now there are equally as many that like to use a lead-headed jig with a plastic grub. I suggest you try them both.
Good luck when you catch the big one let me know, especially if you beat the current NYS Freshwater 18-pound, 2-ounce walleye caught this month on the St. Lawrence River.

Minnesotans to learn about the importance

The resolution calls on all Minnesotans to learn about the importance of the Great Lakes and St. Lawrence River to the economy and the environment of Minnesota.
Tourism generates a great deal of activity for Lake Superior, and the resolution notes an estimated 3.5 million people visit the North Shore every year, generating more than $1 billion annually and supporting more than 20,000 jobs.
Industries supported by Lake Superior include commercial and sport fishing, recreational boating, commodity shipping and waterborne transportation. With approximately 900 vessels and 35 million short tons of cargo moved through the Port of Duluth-Superior each year, it is the Great Lakes’ largest tonnage port and one of the top 20 in the nation.
