#33 || Dr. Nigel Lester and Nick Baccante: Walleye Mysteries Solved - Your Questions, Expert Answers

Liam Whetter & Gord Pyzer

Why did your go-to walleye lure stop working? Do big females "ghost" anglers after the spawn — and where do they go? Why are some lakes full of daytime biters and others go dead until dusk?

In this jam-packed episode of Doc Talks Fishing, renowned walleye scientists Dr. Nigel Lester and Nick Baccante return to answer your questions about walleye behaviour, movement, learning, vision, spawning and feeding. We even dive into deep science on saugeye reproduction, pelagic foraging and whether you're fishing too small for big walleyes.

If you love walleye and want to understand them on a whole new level, this is the episode for you. It's science you can use — to catch more and bigger fish.
