Not a one in the whole lake, especially the jumbos...but you didn't hear that from me!  LOL
Muskies...All other fish are just bait!

I usually rent one of those shacks from the hotel right on the lake that is part of the Casino in February.  Probably a dumb way to fish Mille Lacs but I always manage to stumble into 50-100 perch just sitting in the shack near shore drinking beer.
Lotta perch in the lake but it is a big lake so some days you get skunked... if you knew the lake well I doubt that you would ever get skunked though.

Pay special attention to "Length of Selected Species" for yellow perch. Remember that we are in a down cycle. :laugh:

February is cold and the fishing can be slow. Your best bet for big perch is early ice in December or late ice in late March or April.
