walleye

[smalliestalker 0]

Does anyone specifically target walleye with flies?......What kinds of crazy patterns are you tying?....I've been using deep clousers. white/grey....shad colored.....chartreuse/white.....some success, but not as much as I'd like.....Anyone have any suggestions....Thanks.....

The only thing that had been working for me this whole season was leeches. Oh and I did get one on a dry hex. Coolest top water action I ever seen.

here in the midwest i change flies with the season. minnow patterns in spring, clousers,double bunnies , sparlkle grubs. more toward summer leech and worm flies , then back to minnows in fall.

ok....I'll give some leeches a try then....I have not used them at all....Any specific coloring?

gotta go with Rich and the baitdish patterns...walleye will be stacking up in the Cumberland over the next few weeks...hoping to get a few on the fly next week....buggers (olive and white--solid colors with flash) work well in the spring and fall....Have never landed a Ky keeper on a fly, but hope to change that!

My walleye experience on a fly rod is very limited.....with that said, I was picking them up on a sinking line w/a bunny strip leech both olive and black.....I was catching them early morning and late evening where a creek dumped into the lake.....

 

Good Luck!

I catch em on sparkle minnows and white/chartruese clousers in my neck of the woods, I've caught em on foam bodied poppers as well.
