Perch Fishing

[falbinki]

I will be fishing at chautauqua lake next week and am looking for some info. I would like to run over to barcelona to do some perch fishing, but i have no idea if the perch are even over there. i only hear reports over to the catt. never really hear anything about dunkirk or barcelona. Would i just be wasting my time looking for perch over there? And if they are there any idea what depth to start at? Thanks for any help guys.

Out of Dunkirk try around the harbor departure buoy in 40-50 fow, should be boats in the area. Years ago we out of Barcelona we got perch in front of a/the pump house/green? to the west of the harbor 45+ fow. Not sure if the pump house is there anymore? Ask the harbormaster he might know some info. Good Luck.
