Night fishing

[Bennick16]

 Has anyone tried fishing potholes at night for walleye? Have you had success? Is it even legal?

[Henrydog]

Legal yes.  Have not done it for walleye, but I think it would be productive with how their eyes are designed for lowlight conditions

[Skillet]

It is legal.  And productive.  Lots of guys will fish off the docks at MarDon at night, some nice wally's get caught that way every year.

[WALLEYEGUY]

Yes to legal and can and is great.  Summer time trolling plugs can't beat it once you learn the lake for fun and quality fish.

 Somebody was telling me they had a pen full of fish that acted like walleye decoys, is that true?

Watch out for goose island! If your boating.

Watch out for goose island! If your boating.

Is that the island covered with 100s of seagulls a couple hundred yards off the damn?

[C-Money]

Yes. Late summer there are some rock piles that are exposed, some are hidden just under the water. Be careful around that island, gets shallow quick in some spots.

Out drives go there to die!

This is not a joke, we call it the rock garden....on a late clear sunny day, spend a little time with the big motor up and and take a look around....

Or jump out and walk beside your boat in 8 inches of water

Lotta paint on some of those rocks between goose and the dam.

Yup winter time is when you want to fish the docks for walleye. They have a trout pen they have there until March or April. I've heard of people catching walleye there during the winter with swimbait type baits, haven't tried it myself though.

I have heard hurling Stick baits as far as you can works also.
