Need Help Perchin

[wayne johnson]

learn this long time ago big perch are on the bottom, and if they feel any resistance they will drop the bait, when boat going up and down in the waves, if your off the bottom you are mostly out of the fish zone, this way with slack line you stay in
fish zone longer and have better chance for larger perch, it takes a while to learn but will increase your catches big time, skipper nine rig is kind of a crappie rig without wire two inch
arms with mono, tiny true turn hooks, and a couple small beads,
its also some thing thats a must on the boat, just ask capt. jim to print a picture. Wayne AND mIKE REEL SPORT CHARTERS

Here you go. These are the pics Jim posted. Like Wayne said, the key is to fish on a slack line. Personally I use braid with a swivel tied on the end. I snap the swivel to the loop on the perch rig. Drop the rig to the bottom...when you feel the weight hit the bottom let out slack, close the bail and reel in enough line that your rod is parallel to slightly under parallel to the water...depending on waves. Now you can let a little slack in the line and usually if the perch are there, as soon as you let the slack in the line you'll have a perch on. It's easy...you'll catch on quickly, but it probably defies how you were taught to fish...on a tight line. Good luck!

...if you send Skipper 9 a pm, he'll probably send you a rig to check out.
