perch on a lowrance

[Russ Hunsaker]

Here's one from friday

How high do you have your gain? A very busy screen, my FF has never looked like that unless I had the gain very high.

I notice one thing with the screen shots posted. When I'm on perch (actively catching them) my marks are almost always right on the bottom up to maybe a couple feet up. Some on the screens here show fish from the bottom to almost 15' up from the bottom. Only time I tend to see that is if I'm into white perch or white bass. I notice they will tend to be higher off the bottom. Just my observation and experience.

You are correct! That is why so many experienced perch fishermen use 1oz or slightly larger weights. It gets the bait thru the junk faster with less time for them to locate and take your bait. Most perch are caught right on or almost on the bottom. In deeper water they are sometimes suspended a little off of the bottom.

Anyone could catch a fish in 20' thick schools. Or is that a lot of bottom moss or something ? Mike

That is fish, all perch and yes anyone can catch them there. Finding them like that is a different story.....
