Water Dogs~ Perch Report

[tracewisecarver22]

Caught 30 perch in 30 fow using a spreader,on the bottom,with minnows and no bling.(in never use bling)
I was east of Niagara away from the pack of trollers. (alot of trollers too!)
Caught a 22 inch walleye on a spreader too!
About a dozen sheep head and some white perch too.
The perch weight was 8 pounds at the cleaners. (uncleaned weight)
The waves were not the 2 foot or less as they called for, more like 1-3 and then a 2-4 every now and then.
Still, was a good day on the lake and I did not seem to mind because I was catching fish!

heading up to lake erie next weekend for some perch and walleye fishing will be around the kelley’s island area looking for pointers on where to start out fishing?

I cannot give you pointers around Kelleys, however the G can area and F can area are good places to start.
The yellow perch fishing is heating up~! Just need to locate a feeding school and you may score some walleye perch fishing.
I have read that east of Kellys is good too, if you go north of Kellys be careful there are some reefs that can hurt your boat (GPS maps are great if you have that).
Hope you have a safe and fun trip.

The cans are the range markers for Camp Perry.
If you Google it you can see the area for Lake Erie.
