Big Perch

[BAD KARMA]

guys dont perch fish much but would like to try. im always chasing walleye anyways i was right on the west side of locust reef were it starts to drop off fishing the edge and marked sooooo many fish 2 foot off the bottom for a good 50 yds while drifting and caught a huge perch in that area didnt put 2 and 2 together but thought they might be eyes. do you think these were probably perch and if so how whould you fish for them anchor and jig?.

Anchor up and fish spreaders or crappie rigs with shiners straight down just off the bottom. It's very easy and fun when you get into them.
