Water Dogs~ Perch Report

18 lbs for 90 is 5 to a lb. Those fish look bigger than that...unless you put all the nice ones on top. Right now I would take a limit of most any size!

This year has been the pits for fishing weather wise, period! I say if you want some perch for the freezer or just a meal or 2 then you best take what the lake is willing to give you when you can get out fishing. Who knows what this algae situation is going to become.

Later this year when they do the trawls for the young of year walleye I look for poor results, not because there was a bad recruitment of YOY walleyes (and that certainly is a possibility) but because the dead and dieing algae would have forced the YOY eyes to move to locations that are not normally part of the areas surveyed. They simply will not remain in areas that they cannot breath in, they will move to survive, they are not suicidal.

22 perch at H can today (Sunday 7/26/15)
5 pounds at the cleaners, only had two small scoup's of minnows and I ran out.
biggest perch was 12.5, very nice.
also caught a nice small mouth that was released, a 14.99 inch walleye, which was released, some white perch and a few big sheep head.
very bouncy in the am, was not the 1 foot or less they said.
I get my minnows at the Sunoco in Port Clinton, AJ's west of Port Clinton, or Shore Nuf at the draw bridge.
I was S.E. of H can in 18 fow, spreaders and no bling.

Friday 37 yellow perch and Saturday 12 yellow perch ~ tuff times ~ no shiners.
Did use some golden shiners, moved to deeper water north of "H" can to get out of the white perch.
Did manage to get some very small shiners, but they just don't stay on the hook all that good.
"H" can mostly.
