  1. I was wondering how you made out, how was Rock Point?
  2. Awesome, we should get him and Jacob out in the boat for some perch
  3. I usually take 50 - 100 pictures on most outings. I just forgot the camera and had to use the blackberry this time. no parasites in these. I've never had them in any perch in Long Point, as clean as can be There are always around down here, just harder to find in the summer
  4. I think I can handle that! BTW I am pondering over your pump question
  5. no prob BTW the new Pflueger Trion that I picked up off ebay is the perfect Perch reel, I matched it with a 5'6" Shimano rod and 6lb flouro
  6. I never fish EC10, I have very good success elsewhere. Maybe someday I'll share them with you... maybe Couldn't agree more! As Smally said the limit is 50. I usually keep my kids little net in the boat because it is perfect for scooping minnows and ya running out sucks. Ya she was happy I'll probably be out next Saturday, we'll see what happens. I am making a fish cleaning station for the boathouse with running water next week to make things easier. I'm expecting a lot of perch this year Ya I never make it out too far in the lake before it explodes This time of year you will get them almost everywhere in the bay I'll let you know where I find them
  7. Sounds good to me, let me know what day and I can find a babysitter.
  8. I got an unexpected "free" day today so I went down to the cottage to do some perchin. It was too short notice for everyone so I headed out alone. I didn't get down there until 11 and didn't hit the water until noon. I figured I would spend some time and get the boathouse organized. It turned out to be a perfect day weather wise. Slight chop turned to glass by the end of the day. I ventured out and seen the pack of boats at EC10. I was going to go over but I went to one of my honey holes instead. I managed to get the last dozen minnows around and they turned out to be some fine minnows. I threw my line in the water, set my rod down to grab my coffee and in the two seconds... 11" perch I only had a dozen minnows so I ended up using a couple minnows to get the fish in and feeding, then switched up to gulp alive for a couple fish. When they stopped hitting that, back to a live minnow. I kept switching it up and it worked out great. The minnows ended up lasting a couple hours. Mind you I nearly dove in the water to grab a few Not many pics were taken due to me being solo and the fact that the perch were always keeping me busy. Here are some scenery shots from the day. I ended up going for a cruise out on the lake but when I got into 4-5 footers I turned around and headed back in. Ray's dog came over to play with me and ended up hanging around for a while. Jacob spends hours playing with him. I kept just enough perch to fill my bucket which only ended up being 17 but only 4 were under 10" and they were only kept because of deep hooks. BTW it's a wide board After getting them all cleaned I gave it all to my mom. Next week I'm getting a limit!
  9. I'm going out regardless of what the wind does this afternoon.
  10. I wanted to head down there but the cottage is calling my name!
  11. Some guy I knew you would be the one to truly appreciate the kit.

  13. ah what the heck, an even buck if you throw in the net!
  14. I'll take the ruler and the fish. Got too many kids right now. Does 43 cents seem fine
