We caught one perch in a few hours that was about 12.5 inches. The write up gave us plenty of other things to try to do better next time. Also, enjoyed your YouTube videos. Thank you.Welcome. Glad you were able to get out and at least experience the perch situation. With our high water year and fluctuating weather pattern it has been tough even for some of the more experienced perch jerkers. And some days have definitely been better than others. Most of those bigger perch are pregnant females, ya know. And they can be fickle and moody. All the fish in Willard are subject to changes in weather, water temps, food movements, etc. So they might move around a lot...or just plain get lock-jaw until conditions stabilize for a day or two.
Glad you like my humble videos. Not a pro yet. But I enjoy making them and sharing what info I can. I plan to put together a composite video soon of the late season action on Willard...with some lure and bait tutorials as well as fish porn.
Ha ha ha. I do remember those days.
I think we are going to try again this weekend. As of last night it looked like wind of 5-10 on Friday but no wind on Saturday. If that holds, Saturday will be our day.

I was there on Saturday. I didn't see anyone catch anything. We caught one 12.5" perch, out from everyone else drifting. We got it on a 00 Mepps Bantam Syclops in hot lime/chartreuse.
It was pretty rainy, though not a lot of wind.
