Joe & his crew from Liberty , PA joined us for some Perch & Walleye action on Monday . With a little luck from the weather god the passing thunderstorm did not affect our travels ; staying just inland from our position . We began Perch fishing in rough 3-5 ft waves with an occasional 6 ftr and having a 1 mile drag before the anchor struck pay dirt by 10 AM we had boxed 180 Perch ( a six person limit ) and were on our way to look for eyes .
Unfortunately the wind had the eye bite shutdown with what looked like a promising first hour of trolling with three eyes in the box between 4 & 7 lbs . The eyes would not co-operate after that so we headed back to dock early for what would be a 3 hour cut & bag operation . The 180 perch yeilded 20lbs of fillets and 60 lbs of waste so I would say we took what we could get and had an excellent day despite the 20-25 knot winds . Thank you fellas for the excellent company and helping "clicker" stay on his feet !
