Probably 25yrs ago the southwest walleye club would get boxes of walleye fry and some times fingerlings and they were stocked pretty much just in Apache almost yearly? (same time g and f experimented with I believe 3 different species of lake trout?) stocked in the lake. When we fished Apache a lot for smallies and the big yellow bass we caught walleye almost every trip by accident using small spoons or spinners some pretty good size but never concentrated on just fishing for them especially being an AZ native never knew exactly how to target them, but they sure ate good we would catch an occasional good size trout also.

Thats pretty cool they are doing that on more regular basis. Would be nice to have a decent walleye fishery closer. Funny to while there have always been walleye in those lakes in the hundreds of times I have fished em, never caught an eye. Everyone I know has run into one on accident over the years and I even targeted them a few times but nada. Caught walleye in Show Low, Fools Hollow, lake Mary, and Powell but none in the salt chain.

I have the same experience, have heard others catch them and I've even tried a decade ago trolling lindy rig up on the way to Roosevelt dam while on Apache Lake and no luck actually catching one. I even saw Johnny Johnson hook up one at Apache awhile back.
