30 yellow perch in 29 fow just east of the green bouy at Niagara reef. Using spreader, minows on the bottom. 9#'s at the cleaners very few through backs and one fish ohio sheephead ~nice day on the lake and the breeze helped with the heat!
p.s. a lot of boats at "D" can at least 40 ! and a lot of boats west of Niagara around "C" can.

Got 23 keeper yellow perch before that storm went through this afternoon. 7#s at the cleaners (had about 4 throw backs). Caught sheephead & white bass too. Started at Niagara reef, the water was stained and the that green bloom looked like split pea soup. I could not get one fish~! Nothing, my honey hole was no good, so I went north to the North West Reef (some call it the kidney) That is where I caught my fish, spreader on the bottom no bling and minnows. Seems like we are going to have a minnow shortage too with the full moon. Talked to some folks at the cleaners and they said they did well around Green Island. I attached a photo of the green bloom.

15 yellow perch! tuff day for me. Lake was a bit rough this morning, so I headed for the south side of an island for some cover. Set up just south of green island, then east of green island, caught about 5 yellow perch and some sheephead. Then headed to rattlesnake island, there were about 30 boats just east of the island. Caught 10 more keeper perch and about 5 throw backs and some white perch too. Hope for calm weather to get the perch on again~!
