I agree, that background does not match a single portion of that lake.
Also I don't where they are putting their gill nets but the walleye population in Sylvan has exploded in the last 10 years. I don't know a spot on that lake you cant find walleye. If anything those fish are becoming stunted, the average size is maybe 12-15 inches. With the increase in the walleye population the shiner and perch populations have declined rapidly. I think a walleye tag draw in Sylvan would benefit the walleye population, while increasing the forage and perch pops. Here is one of the numerous triple headers....to prove a point.
As well I have noticed that population of pike is healthy and there are some great trophies. I am strong believer of releasing big females of all species.
That being said enjoy a few great sylvan pike from this past year. Please excuse the blood in the one picture.. its from me not the fish. I got chomped removing the lure, you could take less damage from a paper shredder.
