Providing time-tested information, Burch explains walleye behavior, the best spots to fish for them, and the best tackle and gear to use. The book is broken into eight seasonal sections, beginning with early spring and the prespawn period and carrying through to the postspawn and finally the winter. Each section includes illustrations demonstrating the best places to find walleye as well as the best fishing techniques to employ once you’ve found them.
