Much like the wicked witch of the west, the Maumee River is melting, melting, melting. For as rough as that blast of winter was the last couple weeks a good portion of the Maumee River is now open and slowly warming. The temperature that will trigger the walleye coming into the river is right around over 40°.

No walleye as of this morning- still early

Walleye  -bag limit is 6 in the Maumee river  all the way through the spring walleye run!

NO SNAGGING, ALL FISH MUST BE FAIR CAUGHT IN THE MOUTH.
