Thanks Ed

I'll let you know how we do

Over 400 fish handled with 44 keeper perch. White perch as fast as you could re-bait the hook. Bait shop indicated that fishing had been very spotty and directed us to 4 mile out at 40 degrees. Moved a few times at the 4 mile mark and got tired of white perch. Moved out to group of boats 5 mile out and marked fish but there was no bite at all. Moved a few times around the 5 mile mark but same results. Ended coming back in to the 4 mile mark and finished night. Bling only caught white perch and sheep head. Half minnows caught perch. Whole minnows only caught white perch. 1 guy caught only 3 perch all night but caught more than 100 white perch.

pleiler try this go to single hook, one chartuse bead, eighteen
inch lead, light as possible sinker, lay it in the mud, and lift slowly, it will increase your perch catch, size and amounts,
its like a lindy rig. WAYNE REEL SPORT CHARTERS 419 265 2736

Wayne,

Sorry for the dumb question , but the 18inch leader is attached to the weight, and the bead is above the hook. Any leader on the hook, or do you tie it right to the line.

wayne if the boat is dirty i just remembered i am busy sat...lol.
On way down now.
Wil post later

So you basically attach the sinker to the swivel then, 12 to 18 inch of line also to the swivel with a red hook and a bead. The whole rig is laying in the mud. That is very interesting. I am going to give that a try here shortly when i get out. thank you for the information, it is nice when others share what they have learned. It is always good to learn something new. I keep trying to hook up with you guys but it never seems to work out. i am availiable sept 2 if you guys decide to run a trip.

Do you see any difference in a bell versus an inline or pencil sinker?
