are you matts buddy?
Me and a handful of friends were out there late Friday. They were in thick all afternoon, and we probably iced about 450 pounds of them. Only a few other folks out there with us, but everyone was tearing into them! Several fish came in at over 14", and the average size was big. Didn't think the ice would even make it to Saturday, so sat the weekend out! Although I did hear there were a few caught Saturday, but they were spotty. Was starting to think the local population had been wiped out, but needless to say, I don't think that anymore. haha.A few pics: https://imgur.com/a/9u23p9iStay safe if you venture out there, but I'd steer clear of the ice there at this point.
Yes....assuming you were asking me?
what is a white perch ?
Nice Haul Weatherman! At least someone slammed them. Whenever I've been around traffic on the ice, only a couple times I've fished in the crowds (a few years ago) I haven't had much luck with them, they were always on the move, pluck a few and then gone. I have had them all to myself before where I've gotten about 140#'s of them. 22 gallons I believe it was, not fun dragging the one man pull over back to shore though, that was back when Martell still had the bait shop on Chubb Road. Fun as hell to catch but I can't stand eating them.Anyone ever try smoking the bigger ones?
