Walleye fishing in Wyoming is nothing short of world class. Our guides have hooked and landed some number of fly rod world record walleye and we firmly believe that almost every world record walleye lives in the Reservoirs of the North Platte River. We target walleye on both fly rod and regular tackle and our guide are well adept to helping you have a successful day of walleye fishing with any tackle you want to fish. Cowboy Drifters head walleye guide Ryan Hemkens is a life long walleye fan and will fish sunrise till dusk if you do not mind. (wyocowboydrifters.com)

The buzz: about the only way to get to any of the mountain lakes is via skis, snowshoes or, maybe, snowmobile. The webcams for Lake Owen and Rob Roy Reservoir point to some open water, so the fishing may be great for those making the trek across the snow to get there. In the meantime, there is no word still on when Highway 130 will open over the Snowy Range. It is not likely it’ll open by Memorial Day but check the WDOT web site for updates. As of the start of the week the U. S. Natural Resources Conservation Service snow-measuring station reports a snow depth of 85 inches at Cinnabar Park, near Rob Roy Reservoir, a 2-inch increase from last week. (wyomingnews.com)

This was a great experience for me as I learned lots about fishing for walleye over the 2 days also as about myself and my equipment. although I was a little disappointed with our finishing position, this was a great opportunity to hang out with like minded persons who love walleye fishing. We enjoyed lots of laughs also as some good hearted ribbing and I made lots of new friends. I for one, can not wait to compete in the next WWS tournament event scheduled at Glendo on June sixth and seventh. (Check out the post right here)

This is my favorite WY reservoir to ice fish. One of the few bodies of water in the U. S. That one can steadily ice big channel cats. The fishing wasn’t hot by any means, however we made a choice to put in the time and fish hard every day. At the end of the day our efforts paid off big-time. It generally helps to be in good company to keep your spirits high. Thanks a bunch Laramie crew and my brother for spending some time on the ice with me this year. These experiences are priceless and we really are blessed to have such a great reservoir in our state. Good luck this late ice season and stay safe out there. (montanacats.yuku.com)

Alcova is the new hot spot for walleye, with lots of fish averaging 15 inches. The creel bound for walleye at Alcova is 12. The bound was increased last year to let successful walleye anglers the chance to harvest some more fish and hopefully alleviate some of the predation pressure on stocked trout. caused by a strong year-class of 2-year-old walleye, anglers can expect to catch lots of fish in the 12-13 inch range this winter, said Matt Hahn Casper fisheries biologist. The age 3 year class is better than average meaning lots of walleye in the 16-18 inch range also. But the fun doesn t stop there as Alcova also boasts lots of 10-pound walleye just waiting to be caught. (archive.oilcitywyo.com)

The Gray Reef part has recently been most written about, and with good reason. It’s most likely the best Rainbow Trout rear water in the lower 48. It has restricted public access and is best fished from a ship. It fishes best from March through July then again in the fall months from September through November. Gray Reef is a common rear water is fished most using nymphs and streamers. Dry fly fishing is restricted to occasional activity in the spring to some good dry fly fishing in the fall on Trico's and Blue Wing Olives. Nymphing is typically done with two flies with the top fly being an attractor fly like a scud or san juan worm trailed by either a midge or baeits pattern. (northplatteriver.com)

As with big numbers of mainly piscivorous fish eating species, it’s important there’s a good forage base. Keyhole has good population of emerald and spot-rear shiners and the Game and Fish also has been stocking gizzard shad to offer an extra forage for the walleye and northern pike. In recent years the Game and Fish was trapping gizzard shad in Glendo Reservoir and transplanting them into Keyhole. With gizzard shad, some fish can go a long way as each female produces hundreds of thousands of eggs yearly. (outdoornewsdaily.com)

Alcova is the new hot spot for walleye, with lots of fish averaging 15 inches. Beginning Jan. 1, the creel bound for walleye at Alcova will be 12. The bound was increased to let successful walleye anglers the chance to harvest some more fish and hopefully alleviate some of the predation pressure on stocked trout. Alcova also boasts lots of 10-pound walleye just waiting to be caught. In spite of predation by walleye, trout fishing should still be decent at Alcova Reservoir. Game and Fish stocked lots of 9- to 11-inch rainbows in November. Anglers may also expect to reel in trout up to 15 inches, with an sporadic 20-incher to mix things up a bit. (casperjournal.com)

The baits that you’ll want to take with you include live baits, crank baits, spoons, spinner baits which are smaller also as your common selection of different worms and grubs. In the spring you’ll want to look for fish in the shallow to moderately shallow waters as they’re to get prepared to spawn. Check in regions of the lake that have gravel ledges, points and bumps that are raised above the water as they are their favorite places. In the summer and fall seasons you’ll have more success catching walleyes if you travel along points and gravel bars in the earlier mornings and move the deeper waters as the sun gets higher in the sky.
