Looking at the temps for the next 10 days I'm thinking the walleye are going to start making their way up river sometime this weekend, if not early to mid week I expect to hear of the first one caught. I'm thinking of giving it a try on Sunday actually. Well tight lines a nd safe outings for all this spring on the river and good luck!!!!
They will presumably begin their run. I'm sure to complete the spawn the daylight hours have to be right, but the temps should get them moving into the river anytime now IMO. Photo period has more to do with egg fertilization than the initial push up river.
I was out on the Kinzua res this morning in north west PA. The bite was slow and couldn't land any.
