Dr. Nigel Lester, has spent much of his life studying the life history of walleyes as a research scientist with the Ontario Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry and a professor with Trent University and the University of Toronto. Co-author of one of the most groundbreaking studies ever undertaken, Dr. Lester and his team looked at how ambient light and water temperature combine to affect walleye abundance. If you've ever wondered why your favourite walleye lake does or doesn't produce lots of fish, or what constitutes the perfect walleye water, tune into this week's fascinating episode. You'll never look at walleyes, the same way, ever again.
