Went out during the day on Saturday. Caught a ton of perch 7"-11" on just a small green glow hook with maggot and a perch eye. We did the best just out from camp tuffit in about 17 feet of water, as close to the bottom as possible.

Moved out east of the island around 1100 in 33 FOW. Caught 4 nice 12-13" kokes but as soon as that happened the perch moved in...Had them from 10 feet under all the way to the bottom and stayed like that until 2:00 PM! The Vex was a red blob all day long, but the biggest fish was 10". I was gonna move out to where you ended up, but couldnt motivate to pack up and move...
If I dont go to Spokane Sat, me and Cindy will probably go to LMR Fri night and rent a cabin for the last couple days of Salmon season. Got to get at least one night of salmon fishing in! But I BEST be going to Spokane to pick up the baot, and a test run on Couer d" alene lake before hauling it back here.
They have that pond hockey tournament Saturday at the lodge, might be worth watching!

This has been asked before I am sure but in the last few days what time has the bite been starting in the afternoon/evening and how late has it been going? Also has it been perch or salmon? Or both? AND is Tuffet still the area to fish? Anything been going off of the public ramp? and last but not least... What has been working to catch salmon and or perch. I have not fished down at LMR this winter so any help would be appreciated.
Going to go out tomorrow afternoon and try my luck...

I went out to LMR yesterday off the state park. I moved around a lot but never could catch a perch. The only place I was getting bites was off the weed point to the right. There are a bunch of holes out in about 15 feet of water(100 yrds from the weeds). I only had a few maggots and those little perch stole each of them one by one. After i ran out of magots I didn't get a bite. I was there from 12-4:30. The ice is awsome not slushy at all and thick. I would try another spot than the state camp gound. I talked to another guy who said he hadn't caught any either. Just little bites. With the sun out it was a perfect day to get sk&$#d.

you need to be in front of campt tuffit and get in 18 22 fow and after you catch one switch to eyeballs jig it aggressively and then stop and just barely shake it green seems to be the color

Got out to LMR yesterday (Tuesday) about 1:00 PM. Good ice (16 inches), the water that was on top of the ice has froze and the lake is rutted in places. Fished right off of tuffit in 18 fow, did not graph any salmon but the bottom was alive on the Vex, soooo. I went to the bottom with a glow swedish pimple and the color of the jig did not mater. Green/Pink/Yellow/White... All caught perch.
Moved to just off the state ramp in 32 fow and about 5 PM the salmon marking on the Vex started but would not bite. The bottom came alive once again about 5:30 pm on the Vex and the bite started again, bigger perch... Two were 11 inches, a couple more at 10 and on down to 7 inches. Had not planed on staying after dark and did not bring any lights so I had to leave when I could not see my rod tip. The perch were hitting on a dead stick so I had to be able to see. A good afternoon.

Ok... OK...
So it is slow going <grin> But I was not in a hurry! It was still a good afternoon. I only get out once a week so it was good for me and I even caught a few fish.

No I went for salmon but was not seeing anything suspended on the Vex, and I saw things (perch) on the bottom and figured what to heck. I would really like to get some salmon but thats not going to happen at LMR this winter. I only get out on Tue. or Wed. Work gets in the way of the fun things. BTW the big perch were just under 10" not 11 as I reported, I think the fisherman thing kicked in and you know that "this is 6 inch" thing that us men have.

March fishing for perch at LMR always leaves us wondering...Where are these fish the REST of the year....?
