Hi Guys

Just wondering looking for a report on Sylvan, particularly if the whitefish have been biting. Not looking for secret holes, just a general report would be great.

Thanks in advance

My dad and his buddy fished it yesterday for about 3 hours (morning). He caught 2 tiny perch. Saw a few whitefish on the camera, but none came into his hole.

I dunno guys but I've never had to worry about whitefish at Sylvan. Those whites are crazy aggressive and I've never left without one or more in tow. So asking if they biting at Sylvan is like "duh!". :)
Sure there are days where you land more but I would have to say that the weather and lunar cycles are lining this weekend up to be something special, just sayin...

Hope the fish agree.

Best of luck!

Curious about what tools or website you find easiest for lunar cycles?

This one is a bit slow but good on the visuals:

Iv'e never been to Sylvan. Where abouts is a good spot to drive on and start the hunt ? Coming from Edmonton. Hopefully there is a spot near the NE. end.

Easiest thing is to drive on ice and look for the village of shacks. There is a reason they are there, catching fish.
