i use tipups for larger perch occasionally, and the best rigging i've come up with is pretty heavy on the KISS method (keep it simple, stupid).
two #6 circle hooks tied 1 foot apart on a 3 foot leader of 10 lb test mono, with a 1/2 oz. trolling sinker or egg sinker above. bait it with small bits of bait, so the perch are forced to get the hook in their mouth, otherwise they'll just steal your bait. if you're losing bait, downsize your hooks.
suspend the bottom hook 1 foot off bottom, any perch passing through the area will be sure to see it.
