steverowbotham Posted February 10, 2010 Report Share Posted February 10, 2010 (edited) Well after putting the hurtin on the lakers all weekend, and my perch supply now fully diminished, I decided for a change of pace. Kelli and I headed south of our laker grounds in search of those tasty little striped fish. Got to the lake at 7:15 and started in 25 fow. Lots of fish around, but all averaging 6-8 inches. Moved to 32 and hit the jackpot. From 8am - 1pm there was never a blank screen on the vex and Kelli and I caught fish every drop. We fished the bottom with small tubes, scud bugs and fished for the suspended fish with a small smelt pattern jig. Landed close to 200 fish and kept 30 a piece. No big fish, but a LOT in the 9-11 inch range and about a half dozen 12's. PErch is stocked up for a while, time to get back after the "real fish" Thanks for reading Edited February 10, 2010 by steverowbotham Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roy Posted February 11, 2010 Report Share Posted February 11, 2010 Had you caught more fish you wouldn't have needed to catch all those taters. Fine catch, Steve and Kelli. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
