As far as yellow perch goes. Perch was located in 4 different locations with only one of them being an easy shore access. 3 other spots would require you a very nice hike through the woods.

As far as Slavic speaking fisherman go, trust me hiking through the woods is the last thing on their mind. They would go for an easy shore access and stay at one spot throughout the day.

But I agree place is fished heavily.

Never underestimate a determined bucketeer. At another lake, I saw a group of those guys on mountain bikes with their buckets strapped to their backs!

Yeah, white perch can be hit-or-miss. I guess because they school and you're either on the school or you're not.

I think it was two years ago where I stumbled onto a school of them spawning in a cove. They absolutely swarmed my kayak like piranha. While I was unhooking one fish, the other fish would see the lure dangling over the side of the boat and hook themselves on it. Absolute chaos!
