The perch party was definitely a fun event!!! I enjoyed meeting all the BFT folks and of course catching a basket full of perch. I also caught a couple of small mouths off of a chartruese curly tail. I think the funniest thing was simply throwing a naked hook in the water and catching perch on that. They are some hungry little guys. OEJ and his kids seemed to have a blast, I spent alot of the day unhooking fish on the kids poles and rebaiting, but that was fun to watch them reel in fish after fish. They were excited. Fly fish moose, those tacos were great and pikeman the fried perch was equally tasty. The perch we caught was mainly off of a #12 hook and a piece of perch meat. We caught perch ranging from 2 inches in size to 12-13 inches most around 7-9 inches.
