went out wednesday and thursday with a few guys, abosolutely slayed the perch....i would say and i promise you it's not a fish story, about 500 caught each day. however, as fun as it was...i really havent been able to come across the size i have been looking for so far this year. kept plenty of 7 inch fish and quite a few just under 8 inches for a couple fish frys. limiting out around the 7 to 7 and 1/2 inch range would not have been a problem if we wanted to.
we fished about 930am to 3pm both days, wax worms, from 30 to 55 ft deep. on wednesday i did manage to get one 11 inch perch and the next day my buddy got one 10 inches....but those were the only two fish of any size. seemed like the deeper i went the more and more tiny crappies i caught, tons of little ones never did find any that had some size to them.
not sure how this weather is affecting them, but if you're not getting any bites, keep moving, they're there!
should be out there monday morning, if the weather permits....
