Last year we were going perching out of Huron. But when we got to the mouth of the river, the waves were way too high for my boat. So we hid in the calm behind the lighthouse, hoping it would calm down later. I mean we were about 6 feet south of the lighthouse concrete, and about 6 feet from the breakwall. Dropped down shiners on perch rigs there and caught a monster channel cat, which took forever to get in on our light tackle and light rod. Moments later caught another monster cat in the same spot.
