reetz holds a good # of large eyes and perch, ive had the same trouble out there also, the smaller fish are more aggressive than the hogs, theres some points and trees, junk piles, and all sorts of decent structure out there. I fished it pretty hard this summer and had a quite a few fish in the 24-27 inch range. or the perch i waould just keep movin until you locate them. Ive iced waldos out there in the eveening up in shallower water (5-7ft) in along the trees. i,m from watertown also, lets giv'er hell sometime.
