When you are fishing for walleye the weather has the most influence where walleyes will be located and how active they will be feeding.For example if it is a warm and sunny day walleyes will head for deeper waters or underwater structure to stay cool, and shield their light sensitive eyes. If it is a nice sunny day with very little wind, do your fishing for walleye in deep water, in the thick weed beds or at underwater structure points because the surface water will be much to warm.

If the day is sunny but there is a good wave chop then you can find walleyes anywhere, including suspended because the waves will cool the water and distort the suns reflection. One of the very best times to catch your walleye limit is right before a storm when the sky is dark and overcast and the waves are active. Walleyes tend to become very aggressive at these times. Just remember that the walleye species is sometime very unpredictable, but using the weather conditions to pin point a good starting point to fish is an excellent idea.

it is best to use a combination of your GPS fish finder and the weather conditions to determine where you will fish for the day. These two in combination will increase your chances of have a good fishing outing. Just remember that the walleye species of fish is sometimes very unpredictable. Do not depend 100% on these two walleye fishing indicators to put you on fish. Be prepared to fish in other areas if these two indicators fail. Like I have said walleye can be very finicky and unpredictable fish at times. I think this one of the reasons they are one of the most sought after game fish.

As a rule of thumb walleye move closer to shore and into shallow water in the cooler months and farther out to deep water in the summer months, but remember that walleye are a very unpredictable fish and I have caught them close to shore in the dead of summer. Normally, Walleyes will move when there is a drop in water temperatures and there is a change in weather conditions such as a storm moving in or a overcast cold day, and by all means use these indicators for locating fish, just don’t depend on these indicators 100% be prepared to use other methods to fish for walleye if necessary.
