+1 they are found in water 30 feet deep typically, cold and dark, and nocturnal hence to large glossy eyes intended to hunt critters in the dark.walleye aren't active, enjoy deeper waters and also colder waters at times despite whats going to be said in this thread when the other NA keepers see it.
bass and the other smaller sunfish are your only good options for the pond.
Interesting tidbit. I'll have to remember that next time I am near a shoal of 'EyesWalleyes are NOT deep water type. They're just avoid the sunlight since their eyes are very sensitive to the light. If the waters are cloudy or silty they can be found in less than 5 feet deep. Many walleyes do excellent in shallow lakes in less than 20" ft deep. I do a lot of walleye fishing. They're more active in evenings or early mornings if the lake is very clear. Otherwise they're active all day if the water isn't clear.
