Some perch intel - Cowboypirate - 05-08-2025

I have confirmed reports of perch moving up towards the shore at both RP, Echo and PV. Not me specifically ( been stuck on honey dos)  but my student club - and there are some good young fishermen in that group. Also starting to pick up smallies. Confirmed with photos. If this is the case I am sure Jordy perch and bass are doing the same. Also some crappie and gills actions but was noted but they preferred i not share much about that. They were tossing some Tubedude donated jigs with plastic along with a few of thier "secret bass rigs" Wink

With the weather forecast for a warming trend i am very optimistic about next week. See ya out there. Watch for the grey bearded guy trying to keep up to a bunch of younglings packing Tubedude goodies and a Smile.

Thanks a ton!

We talking weeds and willows, or rocks, though?

Yep.  Hit some shoreline spots at Jordy yesterday.  No idea of water temps, but both smallies & perch in the protected bays that have those
stilted canes.  Smallies hitting jerkbaits; perch a tad on the small size.  Watched a 7" smallie bird-dogging a 4"perch.
