Went up to Cascade on Saturday for the Howdy's Derby.
Between the wind, sun, rain, snow and small hail, we caught a lot of 10 to 12 inch perch. Fished about 6 or 7 different spots and was only able to catch them in one area.
pretty tough fishing for me.

With the weather I did not stick around or check in Saturday. Not even sure what the results were....

I was out all day Sat. in the boat. Trolling for trout and tried some perch fishing...no luck. Top rainbow trout was caught by a teenager I believe and was a Derby record at over 8 lbs. Next couple of winners were in the 3.5lb range.
Some folks found the perch...top weight of 3 fish was around 3.5lbs. Not too many boats out...most folks in the Derby fishing from the bank. Lots of prizes handed out Sunday though. Pretty much anyone who was in the Derby and present on Sunday won some sort of prize.

Fished it today. Very slow. Fished from 730-2:00. Only a few perch and one bass. Got blown off the lake to go along with that. Found some decent schools on the radar but couldn't get them to cooperate. Stopped by toms on the way out to get a few things and they said they havent even updated their report board because the fishing has been so slow. Apparently some people were catching them around the dam a couple days ago, but they seemed to have moved
