A lot of the hungriest walleye in Wabamun were stocked fairly recently, and they are all 12 to 16 inches long. There are some larger breed-stock dropped in from Isle lake and they are in the 24 to 28 inch range, but there aren't that many left because a lot of the larger ones were netted last winter.

They will grow its just going to require a bit of harvest to thin the numbers before the overall size increases. I'm sure the nets will help, and an open harvest of lest say 2 fish between 40 and 50 CM should help thin it out to where you can catch "A" class fish more regularly (60+ CM)
