One of my greatest fishing memories EVER was from Deer Creek. My Grandpa took me and my two cousins and we fished for perch near the Island. Early 80s It was absolutely magical for an 8 year old. We caught so many perch, so fast that it seemed like we couldn't do anything wrong. All three cousins remember that day like it was yesterday. Fishing took on a different meaning for me that day. I learned how to bait my own hook that day along with removing the hook. Doing things yourself for the first time as a child always creates ownership and satisfaction.
Hooked for a lifetime, priceless.
So i'm always a DC perch fan.
Sure hope the white bass don't take off.
