Alberta is located in the western part of Canada. It borders only one US state, which is Montana, making it one of three Canadian provinces that only border a single state. The walleye fishing is great here and anglers can enjoy the beautiful scenery this state has to offer while reeling in a nice catch.

The walleye is a very popular species with the average size ranging about five pounds. However, some of them do grow much larger in Alberta and anglers have caught walleye weighing up to sixteen pounds. This species is best known for their unusual eyes that allow them to see better in dim light than many of the other species.

In fact, their eyes are what earned them the name walleye. Their backs are a yellow-green color and they have silvery sides with a white belly. You will notice two distinct fins on its back, one of which is sharp enough to penetrate your flesh and they have a mouth full of sharp teeth.

The walleye tend to mature at different rates in this area therefore, it's important that you learn and obey all the fishing regulations to ensure you are following them correctly. The rules may be different depending on where you go walleye fishing in Alberta. The secrets of walleye fishing in Alberta include knowing where to go, what they eat and which techniques work the best. All of which you will find below.

Where to Find Walleye in Alberta Canada

When fishing for walleye in Alberta Canada one of the first things to cross your mind will probably be where to start. The good news is that you can find this species in just about every body of water located in this state with the exception of the foothills and mountains. Some of the hot spots include the Rattlesnake/Sauder Reservoir, 100 Mile Coulee, Crawling Valley Reservoir and the South Saskatchewan River. Therefore, if you are anywhere near these areas any one of them would be a great starting point.

Search for this species around structures, break-lines and drop-offs. These are areas they tend to hang out around when searching for food or during the spawning season. When they are not in search of food or spawning you will find the walleye out in the deeper waters. Keep in mind that this is a migratory species so they won't stay in the same spot for very long periods of time although, they do return to previous spots from time to time.

You will find them in the deeper water during the hottest part of the year. They will move in closer to shore again as the temperature starts to get cold. You can find them closer inland in the early mornings and late evenings as well. Another great time to go fishing for this species is on overcast and rainy days.
