All emerald shiners work for pech out on the lake. You just have to let the size of the bait tell you what size of hook to use. I was using pinheads and a #8 hook 3 weeks ago and the fish were annhilating them. Big perch feed on what's available. I'm not afraid to head out on the lake with pinheads but big minnows stay on the hook a little better.

went to FT of ferry yesterday around 11:30 AM, first try all sea weed, second throw got a good amount of Minnows, after that they got to spooky, Sun was bright water very clear, should have went there early morning, maybe better results. Did manange one full minnow bucket. Bait size not bad, bigger than pinheads. Also tried along the straight wall, bait was far out and limited in numbers, that was a no go. Fished tuesday off the Catt 67FOW half a day 50 nice keepers.
