Started at the sandbar 8 miles North at about 9:00.
Slow start, then they turned on about 10:30.
4 man limit 43 lbs by 12:30. Not bad with two newbies on board
zero wind, zero waves

Here you go.

Hope you get 'em. I'll be back this weekend weather permitting.
No telling what they are doing now, but the bite was ON the bottom.
I started with crappie rigs with a third hook off the sinker.
Only bait eaten was the third hook, even if I laid the whole thing on the bottom.
I figured they needed some movement, so I switched to a spreader and kept the shiners dancing just on the bottom.
Really light bite. They were just there.
Good luck !

This is what i have been using to kill the perch we have been catching out of bula.We tried spreaders,crappie rigs with snell hooks,bling/no bling and none of these rigs worked.I have been tying one #6 hook about 9 inches above a barrel sinker.Tie the hook directly to the line.I have been catching more perch this way than when we used other rigs,I'm using a lightweight spinning rod with 6 lb. test mono line.Drop it to the bottom and tighten your line.If I don't get a perch within 15-30 seconds I slowly raise my rod tip one foot and then let it settle back to the bottom.These perch are biting so light it really takes a sensitive pole to detect the bite which often is just a slight quiver in the end of your pole.The ones that hit like a freight train usually end up being dinks.The Jumbos just lightly suck the minnow into their mouths.Good luck
