We had some guests from the area that wanted to fish for Perch. We started off Lakeside in 27 ft of water. Surface temp was 56. The water is cooling nicely.

We had a steady bite until about 10:00 when it slowed. We made one move to the lighthouse after the bite slowed. We finished early with a seasick guest with 41 perch.

The best bait was an orange fly rig tipped with small emerald chunks, followed by naked crappie rigs with frozen emeralds. Most of the perch off Lakeside were on the smaller side. The lighthouse held nicer fish. We had 2 over 13 fatties.

Our two Walleye trips for this weekend had to be rescheduled due to the winds. Hopefully we will be chasing big eyes mid week.
