what we hear at tournament was everything east to islands was slow and muddy, west of west sister is clear, it was rain and cloudy in morning and slow fishing, at 11.00 am the fish turn on big time, you couldn't even click your reel so fast action, you just have to find clear water, keep your rigs simply, skipper 9 rigs or plain light gauge spreaders, light rods and light sinkers,
slightly oversize hooks so not to hurt little perch, and gently
reel your perch up, they are lightly hook, and to not blow there guts, very little junk fish yesterday. Must have rigs on bottom and slack line, very light bite till next week good fishing.
