well the ice has cleared ive been out on the lake already and found the perch(one day) in about 12 ft of water with sliders. you could see the school chasing the bait and if you held it up in the water you could see the fish trying to fit it in there mouth. the biggest perch caught wasnt over 8 inches.
are the bigger fish out deeper or shallower? today i fished the same spot and only caught 3-4 fish i tried another known rocky/weedy area with no luck? any tips on where to find some jumbos ?
