just gotta get out there and search with the sonar. Donut, Reef area, Gary Light, Cal Park and other areas.

Sometimes perch fishing means searching with the sonar for 3 hours before you find em unfortunately.

You can launch at cal park, pastrick, portage etc and get to wherever you need to by boat. I launch at portage and go everywhere by boat personally.

For finding these areas look at the top menu on this website hover your mouse over "Resources" and click on "Topo Map | POI | Bait. You will find all those locations.

The method I see the most out on the lake is the "catchinthem" method. You see someone catching them and you anchor your boat 3' away from them. Amazing how much this happens.

Yeah she was a slob! Actually I got 9 of them and all of them are exactly the same at Douglas Taxidermy. There was very little to no fight to them it was like pulling up a plastic bag full of water....

Poorboy


That is the fattest perch I've ever seen.

Did you ever get the mount with all 9 of them from Doug? That is just unreal.
