Watch: Walleye Spawning on Lake Sakakawea

Every spring, as the ice recedes and the water warms, North Dakota’s walleye get to work — and so do the biologists. On Lake Sakakawea, the annual walleye spawn is more than a natural event; it’s the backbone of the state’s fishing season. Crews collect millions of eggs to raise and release young fish across North Dakota’s lakes. Without this effort, many waters wouldn’t sustain walleye at all. It’s hands-on conservation, and it helps keep the fishing good — year after year.
