Vermillion Area Perch

Taking a 2 day trip (staying overnight in Vermillion) from Catawba Island. We are looking to do some perch fishing in that area or somewhere on the way. Heard East of the dumping grounds was on fire for a while?? Any suggestions or reports would be much appreciated

Was out fishing north of cranberry creek marina last Friday fishing was slow lost the anchor so only got to fish for about 2 hours . Only got 10 fish with to guys

31 line from the 20 to the 17
