Members Zac Seale Posted January 5, 2011 Members Posted January 5, 2011 Has anyone started catching any walleye from the Barker Hole to the Dam yet? I've been thinking of driving down this weekend to do some afternoon/night fishing. Thanks!
Ham Posted January 5, 2011 Posted January 5, 2011 I love catching walleye, but not enough to night fish this time of year. God Bless those that care enough to night fish in this weather. Every Saint has a past, every Sinner has a future. On Instagram @hamneedstofish

Members Dapper Dan Man Posted January 10, 2011 Members Posted January 10, 2011 I have been down there a few times since the start of the year and other than catching a cold (and a couple bluegill) that's bout it, however i'm a complete newbie when it comes to walleye also i was fishing from the bank. Eagles may soar, but weasles don't get sucked into jet engines - Unknown
Wayne SW/MO Posted January 10, 2011 Posted January 10, 2011 I believe it's a little early. Today's release is tomorrows gift to another fisherman.
Members Zac Seale Posted January 10, 2011 Author Members Posted January 10, 2011 Yeah I usually have my best luck at the end of Feb. to the middle of March. They can usually be caught from the barker hole to shadow rock park this time of the year though. I just haven't had a chance to head down there. Thanks guys!
Members ozarkstripers.com Posted January 23, 2011 Members Posted January 23, 2011 It has been off and on but we have been catching walleye. Would really help if we could get some rain. I have taken five keepers this week from 19 inches to 24 inches. Been fishing from dark till 1 am. Been told the bight has been better in the am till dawn. Heres a photo of last nights catch. I caught three and missed a couple and my buddy caught two all between two and four pounds. I fish almost exclusively for walleyes from now till the stripers come on. These were from swanny up to the dam

Members ozarkstripers.com Posted January 23, 2011 Members Posted January 23, 2011 Depends on the bight... All my keepers this year have been taken on super rogues, either the purple back or clown, but that is what I throw most often. I have seen a few others this past week using chubs and slicks and catching some very nice walleyes. They are more patient than I am. Seems they set up in an area and wait for the walleye to come to them. This time of the year I like moving around more cause there are not as many walleye up as there will be in the next few weeks.
