I havnt had any first hand experience of it happening, but the koi fish in the pond at work spawned again like 4 weeks ago.

Walleye spawn in the spring.  Their eggs start to develop during the winter.  If the eggs are large, maybe the fish did not spawn during the spring for some biological reason.  Usually, unspawned eggs get absorbed by the walleyes body and another set of eggs develop in time for the spring spawn.

Thats not uncommon to catch a walleye in the fall with eggs.They start developing eggs shortly after they release them in the spring,you just don't notice them all summer long because they ain't that far along in the development stage.By fall you will start noticing them.

Here in Quebec, walleye spawn in late april or early may....depending on when water temperatures warm up to approx 50 degress Farenheit.  As you can imagine, further south, they most surely spawn earlier and that's only a few months from now.
