Was out there today and The bite was far from what it was the other day. I got out there todat at 3:00 or like 3:20 by the time i was there and then baited for whitefish// The Perch bite wsa really hard as nothing was on the screen and we only caught maybe like 15 untill 5:00 ish when we left,... so... Im not discouraging anyone at all... We were in a Hut we didnt move around (which i would do if i wasnt in a hut big disadvantage) aNYHOW I DID MANAGE TO SEE som huge arse jumbos kicking on the bottom one i thought was a whitefish till it came closer but by that time i was jigging for lakers 20 feet up...and by the time i switched lures ... well you know how fishing goes.. anyhow TIght lines all\!

Germ were you not in Cooks Bay? You lost me with the 20' up for Lakers.

We were out off the 8th today. a good 7" ice. Didn't make it out to Fox or Snake and hear the ice is thinner.

Been at Bear Pt all week off and on and tomorrow over to Black Forest ln. Back to work Fri Night. I hear some of the guys in Cooks are picking up the odd White while Perchin'.

The 20 feet up i ws talking about is the depth i came off the bottom... we were in about 42 fow Off of Oldhomestead ROAd (aka the pumphouse) Which Is about 4o percent accross to the other side of the bay... I usually work about 20 feet off the bottom.. ( at this spot) :>:> Only becasue Frank usually keeps his hut there and with the vexilar and using our own site we can see the Lakers swirling ROUND US Anyhow hope this helped with the miscommunication!

i fished keswick on the 29th (monday) in about 15 FOW caught probebly around 100 or more perch. so many dinks out there . waxies and minnows did the trick. my bro did catch 1 true jumbo

ravinerat · « **Reply #97 on:** Jan 31, 2007, 09:05 PM »

Got you now Germ. I'm famlier with Pump house. Fished there a few times last year. Kind of new to Perchin and only because I need to know how to fish them for the CIFC. Fished the big boys all my life. Some of my questions may seem a little off at times. Maybe I'll hook up with you one day on the ice and get some pointers for ya.

Germ · « **Reply #98 on:** Feb 01, 2007, 05:06 PM »

Well not much to perchin... WEll I guess ..... It doesnt seem to be a hard art like per say brookies or lakers or whities... There are a few tricks i have picked up to get them to hit... When they are finicky that is... THere is certain colors of lures i use also to... Or prefer... THen there are times when You CAn use anything in your bag and the buggers just wont stay off... LOL But would be glad to teach you what works for me:>:> Though I'll be picking your brain on the lakers and whities During this lol!

TIght lines!

We just got back from Simcoe last night and heres what we came up with.

Location: Roches Pt. alot of dinks and 14 keepers 10 in. - 12 in. next day we went to Sibbald Pt. and kept about 16.

Total
150-200 throwbacks
30 keepers

I still would give anything to be sitting on that lake right now even if I were just pulling up dinks, absolutley love it there.

I decided to turn back I was to weak and Didnt feel like Walking inc ircles for hours... Came back to where i knew I would find krusty dawg and TOni TO see there were still fishing for perch but just further out then before when i seen them days earlier.. I walked out to them to tell them my tale of Death lol...

JES_934 · « **Reply #103 on:** Feb 12, 2007, 06:20 PM »

Germ, sorry to hear about your weekend sounds like it was pretty bad. Those whiteouts were crazy, when we were coming back on from Roches Pt. we lost where at on the shore we came out from and had to double back to find it. I've never fished for whitefish before but have always wanted to. I'm just wondering what I have to do. I'm guessing deep waters and some stronger line but not sure about bait, technique, etc. so if ya could point me in the right direction via advice or a thread on here that I can read that would be great.

Thanks in advance, Jes.

Germ · « **Reply #104 on:** Feb 12, 2007, 07:44 PM »

Easy enough man Just depends on what your bringing out with you...
If you have a portable Hut or it isnt to windy then Use a TIp up... Set it with a 4 way spreader like 3-6 inches from the bottom WIth minnows on them.. (perch Minnows) If the tip up goes up Set the hook faster then u can blink... Id use like 8-1o pound test Is all i ever use. (most TIp ups u buy will already have Line on it usually set at around 100 feet of line or so..) anyhow.. I like to also jig with a williams half and half nickle plated (gold and silver)
I have also used the Humpback Creepers or Meggs or what ever u want to call them (no sucess on it yet) though to its defence i usually get weary if it And switch to something i have had success on and Catch them with that,... i just need to stick it out casue ive seen these things Catch tons of fish... just not to my own yet lol...

As per location pretty easy really... WIllow beach You can park there...

Then follow the path out for like 1.5 miles? 2 miles?? Somewhere like that
If your walking should take you anywhere from 35-50 mins somewhere near there You will see the people out there and your somewhere in the range of 70-90 fow

Jigging for the whties just keep the williams like almost on the bottom... II use a sort of slowjig up... but with the hook just almost sitting on the bottom... and you dont need to bring it up very high

Ive seen lots of people just jig the crap out of their lures... But then threy are wondering why they have to gaff their whities to bring them out... (hmmm maybe casue they caught it thru the stomache)
Anyhow... These are the techniqs i use and the location i catch them at... No big secrect to any of it lol
Good luck!

Thanks Germ! Cheers!!

krustydawg · « **Reply #106 on:** Feb 13, 2007, 02:55 PM »

Germ,
Hope you are feeling better ! Saturday was crazy nasty out there with the snow and winds. Tony and I ended up keeping 40 perch in the 8-9 inch range and caught another 100 or so "dinks". The whitefish were darting in and out of camera view all day long. Tony had one hooked for a short fight but it got off. We had a great time up there as usual ! It was good seeing you and hopefully you start feeling better soon. I doubt we will get up your way the rest of the ice season this year due to our work schedules.

Plus Erie started to ice up really good and the walleye fishing will be good enough to keep us busy. The offer still stands for you and the wife to come down this spring/summer to run down those Erie eyes on my boat. Take care and good luck the rest of the ice season !

Germ · « **Reply #107 on:** Feb 13, 2007, 03:21 PM »

Thanks man...

Rather disapointed in Catching the FLu and Now im COnjested with the upperrespiatory bad.. Lots of people at work sick now. THats the way it goes though.. Myabe Next year ill get a chance to fish more then the little time we had this year. Had a Friend Tell me of a location for some Nice jumbos hes been getting just after you left (figures eh?) Anyhow Will keep that in the vault till next year:>:> SOrry i Didnt have more time to keep you on the jumbos and Glad you had Fun even though there were lots of DInks Tight LInes and Hopefully i will make it up your way one time :">!!!

Road Toad · « **Reply #108 on:** Feb 14, 2007, 07:09 AM »

Come on Germ!!!! Don't let a few boogers slow you down, thats why they make long sleve shirts. Hope your feeling better soon.

Germ · « **Reply #109 on:** Feb 14, 2007, 02:56 PM »

The boogers id use for bait never you mind!":>:> I mean The Name Is "Germ" after all lol!!!

Hey guys I'm heading out to Simcoe on March 9th and was wondering if y'all had any warm weather, what the ice conditions were, and what the forcast has in store for us. Any info will be greatly appreciated.

Germ · « **Reply #111 on:** Feb 28, 2007, 10:58 AM »

Well this friday is like plus 4 and rain... then negitives again till mtuesday with plus 2.. then cold again.. then a warm trend i think around the 10-11th of march? ANyhow that is about all i can tell you... the forcast will undoubtably change by then lol

middlewick · « **Reply #112 on:** Mar 04, 2007, 05:05 PM »

According to theweathernetwork.com it should be around 5c or 41f and sunny on the 9th, light rain on the 10th.

If you go on the weather network, can type in any location and it will give you the weather for that area.theweathernetwork.com

Of course this changes all the time. Hope this helps.

We made another trip to Simcoe last Sunday (march 4th) aside from getting blown off the lake it produced enough for a good feed of Perch. Action was steady until 3pm then just died off. I am guessing its time to try a different section of the lake. For many years we have fished Cooks bay area but for the past three years have noticed a large decline in the numbers of yellow belly perch.
I have been a lurker for a long time and finally decided to post rather than just read. Looking forward to meeting some of you out on the ice.

Germ · « **Reply #115 on:** Mar 06, 2007, 04:05 PM »

Well just make sure to post stuff from time to time lol!!!

Road Toad · « **Reply #116 on:** Mar 06, 2007, 04:34 PM »

I got out today, too dam cold to haul dirt

Did not to bad size and number wise. Had to lift the hut 6" to get it up high enough to clear the ice, good thing my youngest was to sick to go to school
