It has been hit or miss. 1 trip we get over 100 perch and the next trip it is tough to get 40. The fish are there, they just are not biting all of the time. My last 4 trips during the last 10 days of August we have kept 121, 106, 25 & 71. The perch we are catching are nice size averaging 8" - 10" with the largest just under 12".
I agree with Zeiler. We have been out 4 times in the last 3 weeks and it’s been the same. Fished south of intake straight out of meinkes marina and fished maybe a mile north. 4 of us caught a limit one day than 48 35 and 60. Guess it just depends on the day. We will be out Friday I’ll have a report for u. Goodluck
how deep are you guys fishing? I'm on west side of catawba, so you won't see me but I'm thinking the same depth should work in front of port clinton.
also, how is the algae now. Its starting to show near me last couple weekends.
thanks,
troll around the islands and you will know why the perch shut down again.
Catching walleye around the islands again

If iwindsurf forcast stays true of sw15 to 16 mph Saturday it will be 2 to 3s off shore. I trust it more than other sites.

We didn’t make it out today the false wind report had something to do with it. Anyways a friend of mine left his dock at meinkes at 7am caught a 2 man limit off wards canal in 21ft of water by noon .
