Pond Boss Forums GENERAL QUESTIONS Help Raising Walleye

I am also interested in this fish for our small 50 acre lake. There seems to be a lot of debate about what kind of water this fish can survive in. I'm farmilure with their limitations relative to spawing requirements, but the guys who are selling them in southern michigan location are saying that the walleye is a great fish for eating up over populated pan fish, which is what we have in our lake. They are saying that they will eat everything smaller than about 4". Others say the lake is too warm in the summer and they will die. ???? Given that they have a life span of up to five years I have proposed a gradual anual introduction (on going) of about 5 fish/acre. Any ideas on this?
