Shiners?

[LAST CAST]

We fished Sunday at Gull Island north of Kelleys water was fine.
We then went to Kelley Island Shoal and fished for perch water was fine.
Caught 30 perch 2 men in 3 hours 10 to 12.5 inch long 12.5 pounds before cleaning. Caught many 7'' throw backs. My buddy caught a 6.5 lb 26.5'' walleye. There was 20 boats fishing for walleye near or on the shoal.
We were 100 yards south of the farthest east green can in 26 feet of water.
All we used was golden minnows. Spreaders with small silver flickers, gold hooks lay on bottom, lift 12'' not tap or tug drop back down if you feel anything different set the hook. I also caught a double both 11'' long.
I tell no tales.

I just wanted to say thanks. LastCast,ReelTime,Wayne Johnson,Waterdog for your quick answers. I get a kick out of reading your posts when I am stuck at home. Also skipper-9 didn't chime in but I like his posts as well.

My boat is at Fenwicks ,I have an old 26.5ft. fourwinns and its not very fast. It would take alot of time and gas to run to kellys.( nice catch Last Cast)
So I think I will try looking for some clean water west of west sister.
And try to get some perch going with golden shiners.



Thanks again

The perch fishing was slow. To many dinks for my tastes.. we had live shinners, frozen shinners, and creek chubs. All produced fish. Lots of throw backs.. I don't like keeping anything less than 9 inches. Oh well.. meet some new friends. That was great....
