Deer Creek 8/6/12

[Jazzperch1]

went up to deer creek on sunday with my old man and decided to do a little tubing around in search of perch or some eyes if we are lucky. Launched the tubes around 7.30 and on my first cast and nailed a nice 15 inch smallmouth, so i thought it was going to be a smallie day but i only got 3 in total the whole trip. started fishing a little deeper and started getting some fat perch in the 10 to 12 1/2 range in about 33 feer of water. nothing way fast on the action scale but i managed 10 nice perch for the fryer. fished a few hours more and manageda nice 20 inch bow that just peeled my drag like crazy. on the way back to where we parked i noticed some bigger fish right on the shore splashing pretty good and i thought maybe carp since there were alot out there jumping but then i saw a good sized LMB come out and tried to eat a bird off the shore no joke so i thought id throw on my topwater frog just to see what was happening and bam on my first cast right when it hit the water i nailed a nice 14 inch LMB. i proceeded down the 100 yard area to our car n=and got 3 more LMB on the topwater frog that were all the same size a fat healthyy 14 inchers. all in all it was a decent trip getting some perch for dinner out of it and getting a largie on topwater there, that was cool. talked to a few trout fisherman that all had limits fishing offshore with PB and salmon eggs, all were great sized 16 or bigger.
