I'll be in my 17 Lund, so super long trips are a little tough. Part of this is also in the event wind kicks me off the big lake one or more of the days I can make the trip. Some pan fishing, or even catch and release bass or anything as a backup would be nice.
Yellow Perch are pan fish too, yes? Do you have a fish finder? I always try for both Walleye and Perch in the spring just to see what happens. If we hit a limit of Eyes and have the time, next step is to check for Perch, with frozen shiners. Hit 'n miss but worth the effort, move around.
