Anyone think I can catch any walleye at 65 - 70 fow out of Sturgeon Pt ? Also with the days getting shorter and the water getting cooler, won't the fish start coming back to shallower waters ?

I like perch
Perch are sweeter than walleye and I eat them but when trolling for eyes I only catch a few and so I throw em back. I really don't know how to fish for perch.
