They are only pesky if you don't catch them. LOL
there are 2 different species of walleye in cumberland , one is the "walleyeus peskius" they are rarely seen and very little is known about them. the other species is "walleyus delicious filletus" while being much less common than the "walleyeus peskius" they are highly valued by anglers.....lol.
kstonich, if you want to learn how to throw a castnet i can show you 3 different methods that work well. just give me a yell before you come down and i will meet you at the dock and show you. i throw a 20 foot net but these methods will work with most sizes of nets.
The species know "walleyus delicious filletus" is why am so eager to catch them. I caught my one and only Walleye (6lbs) at Laurel River last year, for me it was the most delicious fish I have every eaten, this includes fresh Salmon from an Alaska river to high mountain brook trout. One was not enough so my wife has requested that I again return with these succulent fillets for the table. It’s like getting sent fishing for the wife how cool is that, of course I need to by extra gear in pursuit of this delicious fish. As if I need a reason to buy more stuff!

That would be great. I fish out of a Lund 1800 Fisherman the front deck to railing is about 16" and I have no problem getting wet. I plan on coming down after Memorial day weekend for 3-4 days of hanging out on the lake. Hopefully the weather holds out, The Lunar tables shows that period as an excellent time. I take every advantage I can get I only get about 5-8 days a year on Cumberland unfortunately.
walleyus delicious filletus Love it!
Take Stripernut up on the offer.
Here is a method I plan to try this summer when chasing gizzards (If I do chase gizzards this summer).

This looks like an easy to load method that takes the pull line out of the mix. You can just tie it off and make sure you aren't stepping on it when you throw. You WILL get wet and very dirty if you are doing this for Gizzards. Just wet if you are chasing Alewives. It also looks pretty bullet proof. Just turn with the arms out and let the net pull the open part out of the thumbs.
Correction: Last sentence should be: Just turn with the arms out and let the net pull the open part out of the three fingers.walleyus delicious filletus Love it!
