For perch, try peelers...also try artificials like beetlespins...They are still deadly and a buck a piece....perch school, so look for hiding places, rocks, fallen trees, etc...look for the sun/shade line...they are leary of light...Also go shallow...We have recently gotten numerous perch throwing into 1 to 2 foot of water and pulling it back into 3 or 4 foot...The bites are also not as aggressive now and you may get many hits when you are pulling the bait out of the water....Keep in mind that the shallows are still warmer and they will seek out that warmer water...

I would like to buy a few dozen bloodworms and put them on some decent perch. I just do not know where to try for them this time of year.
I will be going out of SPSP and any advice would be appreciated!  |
