Some walleye, small, burbot, pike and whites.
They seem to be spread out but on the ridge.
Ice is 12-16" in most places.
There is a big heave about 50 feet from
the entrance road.

where at on sylvan were you? Ive been on or near sunbreaker cove and we have only caught a walleye and a burbot in 3 days of fishing. Its my first time fishing this lake, as we mainly go to Gull, and i need to find a good spot. If you could help me it would be much appreciated.

Where do people go on sylvan right now and how deep in order to get whites. I never tried that lake but it sounds like they are biting so good I'd like to give it a go. Also is it ok to drive on or is the snow too deep and ppl getting stuck?
