| I have not been back to the Fox Valley for nearly 10yrs but will be coming back for a family reunion in early September. I am hoping to get a couple days to try some walleye fishing on the Fox River or Winnebago. Does anyone have any helpful tips on catching walleyes in September on Winnebago or the Fox River? Can you catch walleyes in September? I would not be rigged for trolling - does jigging still work? Any tips would be appreciated. |

| the fox river holds walleyes all year round.. of course no time is better then early spring but there are still lots of fish in there all year..

Location: Neenah, WI | Every year seems a bit different. Slip bobbers may work if the water isn't too clear on the reefs. Jigging over deep rocks may be a good idea also. Keep checking here and as the time gets closer you shouldhave an idea on what's going on. Good Luck. |
