I went out early this morning to beat the power squadron and do some bass and perch fishing. The water was spooky low, but I was able to locate the perch within the first 10-15 minutes and then was into a good selection of smallies. The bass were not too huge, 15" to about 9" with most in the 10-12" range and fat. I was happy to get some chubby perch that seemed to be mingling in the same stretches as the bass. The average perch was over ten inches, which makes a decent filet.
I caught 52 bass and perch in about 4 hours beginning right before sun-up on red flake watermelon 3" senkos. I kept a nice mess of perch for tacos. I was in my float tube without sonar, but I would have guessed the depth to be between 12 and 15 feet. I fished the east side near the Ross Creek trailhead. It is still a ton of fun even without any typical cover that I am used to fishing.'
I left my phone in the car, so no pictures. I will post a few later.
