7 at willard bay 2 years ago. 2 hours from 6 am to 8 am. Besides that i have only caught 1 eye elsewhere and it was at holmes creek. Never fish much anywhere else that has them.

This might sound rediculous to some folks but I've had multiple 100+ fish days/nights fishing pre-spawn river runs.. guessing @ 80-90% probably being shorts - it varies though. One stretch of water in particular the only thing they'd take is 'finessed' dead 4" emerald shiner rubbing bottom. Very hard on your hands!!

My best and only time I caught a whole bunch was at Banks Lake in Washington State. In less then two hours I landed 27 from one spot, which was at the main canal inlet that feeds the lake with water. Every fish was right about 19 inches and I released everyone. At one point I hooked and landed 14 in a row all on a brown grub. Craziest thing I ever experienced.

Oh, its not a matter of winnin'.. just being in the right place at the right time. Basically stumbled upon these spots trying to find fish.
I don't fish 'em pre-spawn anymore.. I wait for the egg drop and then start chasing nowdays. Too delicate I figure.

I HAVE SOME VIDEOS OF AL LINDER HAVING THOSE TYPE OF DAYS. YOU GUYS HAVE A TON OF EYES IN YOUR NECK OF THE WOODS. I AM NOT SURPRIZED THAT SOMEONE POSTED UP RESULTS LIKE YOU POSTED. THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR BEST SO SOME OF THE OTHERS GUYS THAT THINK THEY ARE A RARE CATCH SEE OTHERWISE. MEN I WISH WE COULD USE LIVE BAIT HERE IN UTAH.

[font "Lucida Console"][#ff4040]One time at Utah Lake I caught 20. That has been the only place where I have caught a good number of Walleyes in any outing. I've caught a few here and there at Willard also, but never in huge numbers.[/#ff4040][/font]

Never really walleye fished much. Did hit them this weekend though. Boated close to 20, dont think I made it though. This was at Milford Lake KS. 18 in min. length, so there were alot of shorts [
], still managed 4 over 18".[signature]
