Last year for the derby we fished a spot that we always have caught perch at, but later in the ice season and last year we were almost fishing new ice. But we did not catch any perch at all. During the summer out of the boat I could find some piles of perch but not the big ones of the past but the walleye fishing has gotten better the last few years and with high number of walleye usually for us means lower population of perch just been this way for the 30+ years I have been watching and fishing boysen. Ole fish might have some better reports on the lake as I just really have been trying to learn walleye fishing the last 10 or so years, well always but getting better at it, and I have seen this, at least with the trout you can usually have a few flags to keep it interesting instead of a few years ago when they did not stock trout and those years made it so you did not want to go back out ice fishing on the lake.
