Perch Caller

[MBLMIKE]

but on the serious side the motor running while anchored does work not sure why. I also heard of dropping a large 1 gallon glass mason jar filled with water and a few shinners the perch see the shiners but cant get them it drives them crazy then when you drop your line down they hit it with a furry. I am going to try it next time Im perching and it gets slow and cant get a good song on the radio

I have used mine for years, I think it helps sometimes.

How does yours work 5285. Does it have something tied inside the pipe so that it makes noise.

I believe the motor running does trigger the bite. I say that because I've pulled up to spots to anchor and fish and have watched people reeling in a catch and then nothing.

Much the same effect as running the motor, I found music doing the same thing. Found over the last 20 years perch like the Rolling Stones.

If you see a guy yanking on a perch Caller banging on the side of a boat and playing Beast of Burden with his motor running. That will be me.😂

A cheap can of tuna fish or cat food packed in oil with a few holes in and it tied to a stout line, bouncing off the bottom works too.

I've seen ppl use white rice tossed over, ground up shells, my papa used to just a minnows in a jar with lid tied over the side.

As I understand it fish don't have our color acuity, but have a much, much better view in murky water than we do. That's not to say that they can necessarily see when we are clouding up the water, I don't know. I only know that our inability to see doesn't directly relate to a fish's ability. I wouldn't be surprised about noise or murky water attracting him, it seems to with other fish.
