ChangeEstimated species — not a state survey

Species context
Why this score
Poor (25/100) for Walleye: water is estimated at 42.6°F, below Walleye's 65-75°F optimal range. This is a day-level estimate beyond the hourly forecast horizon, so there's no single best hour to break down.
When best caught
It's currently fall. Walleye typically hold 20-55 ft deep this time of year — at an estimated 42.6°F, this looks like a slower time of year to target them, since water temp is outside their optimal range.
Current depth
20-55 ft
This is the seasonal depth band from the species model, based on this species' typical behavior, not this lake's actual structure.
