Not as late as your trip, but the 1st 12 days are nice enough without getting ice. We did catch smallies, pike and lakers, though the lakers we couldn't keep. I have caught walleyes during the 1st week before, just not this year. We saw people on Batch and Pickerel the 1st day and nobody for the next 11 days. Camped on Pickerel, Fred, Camel, Delahey, Conmee, Poohbah, Fred, and Walter.

FYI, Don't do Allen Ck. We thought that was far worse than the Death March or Memory Lane. I had heard it was OK now from Jim Clark a few years ago and also asked the park office about it before going and was told it should be fine, not true. We joked about going 4hpm instead of 4mph, sadly it was true.
