Are you topping off the bibets with spikes? I was up in the Woods Island area Saturday and the wind was tough enough. I was the only one in our group that was catching any quantity of yellows but they were running smaller as I was using a Hali with spikes. The rest were using perch bait and they were catching jumbos but only catching a perch at about 1 per hour. Too slow for me. As the pike weren't biting well, one guy started to use his jumbo pike bait on the perch and caught for huge yellows on the pike bait. Funny to see the bait partially sticking out of the perch. That is definitely a nice bunch of perch you got there! Nice job.
What's a bibet? Google doesn't even know.
Nice catch. The slabbers are certainly out there in the deeper water. Only problem is if you want to release any, its pretty hard to with their bladders in their mouth.[/quoteI only had to toss a few back. I just prick em with a hook and they can swim back down. I've watched them go back to bottom on my flasher. Whether or not they live after that is a mystery to me. I know guys burp lakers from deep water or use a needle. Must be the same with perch. Not gonna burp a 6" perch though
