Yellow perch species guideWalleye are stocked periodically, and natural reproduction also helps maintain an annual supply of legal-size fish. Anglers can target walleye by trolling the mid-water drop-offs or by jig fishing in the opening pocket-points to the bays. Yellow and green body-bait lures are suggested to mimic yellow perch, a natural forage. (content.govdelivery.com, accessed September 22, 2026)
