Anyone know of a good spot for white perch from the ice? I'd love help put a small dent in the white perch population, they're tasty!
Thanks HT. I haven't fished the east end of the lake, hard water and open water. I'm on the west end primarily but haven't really run into a lot of white perch. If there are as many as you guys have stated, have any of you guys gone out on the ice and have your catch of white perch far outnumber the yellows? I would imagine that would be annoying for those of you who consider it a trash/invasive fish.I wouldn't mind hitting one of those schools, if even by accident.
Try north bay (Edgewater, north east corner of the lake) and head out towards lewis point (deeper water). I've got into huge schools of them out there, and big fish too. There fun when the walleye and yellows aren't hitting.In open water try blind island (buoy 113) with a Dixie spinner and worm in the spring. They spawn off from there and you can't keep them off your hook.
they haven't migrated in huge no. west yet, the east end has plenty but we don't start looking for them yet , we are not even on the lake until the first week in Jan. normally, we shoot at them a little later in the season , you will know when you find them your graph will look like a X-Mas tree
They are not the easiest thing in the world to catch either, at least in my opinion. Once my flasher is lit up with those things, the only way to get rid of them is to move. They'll hang there for hours it seems
