While we're not claiming to have all the answers, we did it yesterday where they said it couldn't be done. One of those rare angling days of a lifetime where you & a buddy had to work at it, but you just tore 'em up. 3-doz perch, which should be tested for steroids, overflowing a 5-gal bucket, with the last 25 caught in an hour. We'd like to duplicate the success before we cough up the particulars, but it's some place south of Ice Station Zebra and west of Devil's Lake, SD. And if you'd "walk a mile" for a bucket of perch like that, you'd better be ready to put your boots where your mouth is. Biggees over 13". Pics below. Film at 11.

[#0000ff]Nice work guys. In picture #4 Eljay looks like he either needs a nap or he is as frozen as that porky perch he is holding.[/#0000ff]

[font "Comic Sans MS"][#800000][size 4]My observation as well. With all those perch being quick frozen like that, it had to be colder than you know what. Well done. When can I come over for dinner? You certainly don't expect to be able to eat all those by yourself do you? [cool][/size][/#800000][/font]

Those rocks dont look like painted rocks at all. Them there is oil shale formations.
But no Walleye?
