hahaha wowww. so ironic you just posted that. decided to go try Ballast for perch yesterday cuz we had been hearing great things...we had no idea it got THAT shallow south of ballast island. 2.1-2.3 feet for a while. it was quite the experience. thank god we were idling along cuz we were unfamilar with the waters. we were able to reverse on out of there.

however, we did try perch fishing for a little while north and then northwest of ballast island. did awful. size was just pathetic. kept 1 or 2. 90% were 6 inches or smaller. maybe we werent far enough east??? Tried southwest of green island with a couple other boats. same deal. actually did our best fishing at the CIC green can about a mile from our cut. ended up with about 20 perch
