Thank you for your kind words. I fish both the south and north side of the Welland River, Welland, ON. I have caught walleye in both stretches, but I must tell you they are not always there.

I think they really move throughout the river. I have caught several nice walleye in a short period of time and I have also been skunked on many occasions. I still have not figured out their movement completely. I have not caught them early or late in the season, or through the ice, only in the middle of summer (July/Aug). I fish any of the steep-dropping shorelines that go down to 7′ depth and any rocky areas of the river where structure is created (not too many). I do rely on my Raymarine to locate the subtle structure and then I crank’it. I have caught them randomly off weedlines, shorelines and around bridges. Hope this helps.
