 Walleye fishing is back on at Malax Lake after a roughly month-long closure, state regulators froze walleye fishing beginning July 7th, eventually expanding a planned three-week pause after discovering anglers had exceeded the 45,000 pound quota. Catch and release walleye fishing resumed at six this morning and is expected to continue through Labor Day.
