Has anyone had any luck finding any perch on Sylvan this year?

I haven't been this year, but last year it was good in the marina on south side. I wonder if the surplus of the walleye have cleaned out all the perch?

have not been out there this year but i would always
find them in the deepest water there. 28' & deeper.
usually foot off the bottom.

I fish mainly on the other end of the lake (south end) opposite of the Marina and I havent seen a perch in about 3-4 years.

Maybe the walleye population has wiped out the perch? i am going to try tomorrow in the AM, if no luck in my trusty old spot i'm going to Gull!

ive fished sylvan off and on both summer and winter for over 30 yrs. and i believe there are very few perch left. 20 yrs ago you could limit out on 20-30 perch in an afternoon but it has declined steadily and with so many walleye now present in the lake i beleive there wiping everything out and sylvan will only get worse, before some changes are made.
