Perch on Thompson
« on: August 23, 2006, 05:47:12 AM »
Have a guy staying at the Motel thats been catching decent amount of Perch On east side down by 2 mile road, I dont got a depth or a jig but I know he is using crawlers, and bait babe says 13 inchers easy.  I told her to grill him for more info today, if he talks ill post it later.  Good Luck,  Bo

He said going straight west from the silo (not 2 mile) eventually the depth drops from 9ft to 11ft he tried to stay right on that drop at like 10ft, bite has been ending by 11am dont know what time it starts.  Good Luck,  Bo

I guess at 11 when the bite ended I'd move straight out to deeper water, about 2 feet deeper to start and then 4, etc,  and try that or try a different jig setup or whatever. The timing of it makes me think the school moves rather than stops biting.

Last weekend we caught a couple real nice perch around 13 while live bait rigging down by the road. You are right the are definitely some of the nicest perch I've ever caught. Almost completely round they were so fat. Tasted good too. ;)
