Water Dogs~ Perch Report

[waterdog]

Took my lucky charm with me today (Wife) and we went to that same pack of boats between "H" can and "G" can. Using a spreader and minows on the bottom in 20 fow. Caught 22 yellow perch keepers in 2 hours 6# at the cleaners. (I was baiting my lucky charm's hooks too!) About 15 throw backs~! and 10 white bass and 4 sheep head. Action was great but after two hours my lucky charm gets tired~ nice day on the lake.

Got 90 yellow perch east of Niagara in 30 fow east of the green bouy using spreaders and minows on the bottom. About 20 throw backs~plenty of white prerch and white bass and some sheep head. NE winds and a nice chop to keep those spreaders moving on the bottom. 22#'s at the cleaners.

Got 30 yellow perch in 29 fow just east of the bouy at Niagara reef. I was done in 2 hours! Using minows and a spreader on the bottom with no bling!
I did have about 5 throw backs, 3 sheep head and a few white bass.
I get 3 dozen minnows per person when I fish.
There were about 25 boats a "D" can.
Nice day on the lake, a little warm, but still nice!

That's not very many minows. I usally get about 5 dozen. How do you do it?

Put the hook in the minnow(from head to tail) and watch your pole tip..as soon as it moves....pick up the plole and set the hook! I usually lay my poles down..and they must be on the bottom. (also, when you go to any "good bait store" a dozen is usually a scoop and there are more than a dozen if you would count them. However, when I get into a lot of white bass, sheep head and white perch your minows can go purdy fast...so then cut them in half. Hope this helps you ~fish on
