I am just getting back into Lake Erie fishing after being busy with kids, work and family for many years. I found the perch to stage in the same areas they have in past years, but they definitely seemed to bite better over toward Toledo and in the reef complex area. It seemed to me that the perch started out pretty good in August and early Sept, but then trailed off greatly by the islands and border as the fall season progressed. I want to see if most of you that fish the island area thought this was the case. Does anyone have any thoughts or data as to why most of the fish were picked up way out West?
Thanks,
Bruce
