Walleye are eating Yellow Perch on the Saginaw Bay?? All fish are cannibalistic and will eat whatever they can. I caught a quite a few Walleye last year and didn't see any yellow perch in their guts. How about it Dan or Jason???? Have you seen yellow perch in the Walleye's guts? I'm not saying it never happens but I don't think the perch are the walleye's main source of food. In fact perch and walleye numbers seem to be increasing on the Saginaw Bay the last few years.
