Fall Greenback Hunting

Each fall walleye migrate down from the sprawling waters of the 12th biggest freshwater lake in the world -- Lake Winnipeg, to inhabit the Red River and Winnipeg River. These giant fish are truly unique in that they are an iridescent opal green that shimmers in the light like no other walleye in North America. Besides their special coloration these walleye are of trophy proportions. To turn a head on either the Red River or the Winnipeg River with a large walleye you have to be hoisting a walleye of more than ten pounds. Walleye in the fifteen pound range are caught every year. The greenback run begins about the middle of September and continues on into November.

Fall Greenback fishing Greenback walleye Red River Greenback

We can accommodate small or large groups 7 days a week. Unlike the "experts" out there we think of ourselves as "dedicated students" of the fall greenback run. Let us know what you've got in mind and we'll do our best to accommodate. And for those who want to pull one of these beauties through the ice, we offer ice fishing packages for small or large groups.

Fall and first ice is 'prime' time for BIG walleyes on both the Red and Winnipeg rivers and the south basin of Lake Winnipeg. Locals call the walleye out of Lake Winnipeg, ?Greenbacks? because of their unique coloration. These fish, without a doubt, can be of ?North American Class? size.

Walleye Wonders

Haven?t caught a double digit 'eye yet and don't want to fish when it's really cold. Well, the Red and Winnipeg Rivers in the Fall offer a great shot at that monster walleye, however, there are a few other spots also worth considering in terms of season for a gigantic walleye. Despite what many will say there are some "other" Manitoba walleye trophy hot spots. First there's the Waterhen river and there's there's also other rivers systems and lakes in NW Ontario during the summer...Yup... big walleye aren't only caught in the "Fall" and early winter up here in Manitoba/NW Ontario.

What about "lots" of walleyes in southern Manitoba. Well we've got you covered there as well with the walleye factory that is Lake of the Prairies..... Got a shot at lots of walleye? You bet.

You've got some options on how to do it too. Come up with your own boat and receive some orientation as to where to fish or we'll supply what you need to get the job done.With our services and experience you can cut down search time to concentrate on catching more trophies "when" it's convenient for you!Cat Eye Outfitter is your Canadian walleye fishing connection.
