copo what ever happened to the sliver bass runs that occurred in Dunkirk, foot of ferry in bflo. and the lower niag. river. I can remember as a kid all I needed was a five gal. pal and a hand full of marabou jigs and it was a blast - we didn't see many if any white perch - I heard they bread into the white perch or became a white perch by breeding with another fish. I really don't know would you?
