    Default Biggest Walleye

    While on a recent trip to Spirit Lake, Iowa I caught my biggest walleye on a fly to date. It's no monster but then I've only caught about 6 ranging in size from fingerling to this one.Walleye.jpg187.jpg

    nice walleye. what where you using for flies? I've tried a few times around the Storm lake area with no luck.

    I used a clouser patter to which I attached a spinner ahead of the eyes to make it look like a fly rod version of a Roadrunner jig. I've caught most of my walleye on this pattern and have also successfully used it for spring bass.

    interesting clouser variation. but if it works, that's all the counts. nice job.
