Rockport 1/29 AM...Love me some perch!

[icerman]

It took some doing, but after a few minutes of initital success followed by 1.5 hrs of dead time, finally found the school and was able to follow it for a couple hours.  Definitely had to be mobile to keep on the fish.  Fished the west side around Rocky Point (further south than I was earlier this week).  Best lures were a green/yellow halie on the bottom with a chartreuse teardrop jig 10"above.  40ish FOW.

Lots of folks around and people were catching so long as the school stuck around.  Once the school moved, you had to move with them or it was dead city.

Interesting point, the early, early AM bite was great in the dark, but as soon as the sun came over the mountain, it was like someone turned the switch off.  That's when the searching began...

Congrats on the catching!  I was there this morning and only 1 person in our party of 4 caught a perch.  Moved from 37 FOW out to 65 FOW; the only place we marked and caught our single fish, was in 60 FOW.  NO one around us caught any fish.  We were on the West side, even moved over to the rock cliff area by the dam, nothing!  I have no clue where "rocky point" is, but I must not have been even close to it!!!
