This is where it's all going on. One can ask for advice or general information or simply chew the fat about fishing tackle, tips, and locations.

Perching Saturday Oct 4 2008

Post by Bassmaster »

:D :D

Hello again, haven't posted much since the spring here. Was finally able to get some time in yesterday after a nutty week. Thing is in years gone by once Oct arrived, I pretty well hung up my rod for the season, but after seeing my dad and others getting bass and perch well into November figured I may as well give it a shot.

Anyhooo arrived at the scene of the crime and it wasn't long before the perch showed up, and it was non stop action for 3 solid hours! Sometimes I'd have double headers, sometimes not. Minnows were the bait of choice.

What was interesting to see, was that I noticed an small injured perch thrashing in the water, next thing I know I see this huge boil of water and the perch quickly disappeared!!

In all I brought home 30 decent perch :P
