All I know is I heard that Deer Creek was really slow. Don’t know about the others.

All three are doing well if you find the right spot, away from the pressure of the crowds. Perch at all three are eager in the early morning and slow a bit by 11:00 but still are active somewhat. Fish right on the bottom and go to deeper water it you have not found them. All standard lures with wax or meal worm work. A wire indicator on the tip of your rod will help a lot.[Light hits] I would look for the best ice with no slush if possible.DKS

I think that if u want to catch big perch head to jordanelle. but if you want numbers head to echo.  
but one thing that i have noticed this year is that the trout fishing is best at rockport, but they are small. i only catch one or two per trip at echo, but they are all much bigger, like 16-24inches. compaired to the 10-16 inchers at rockport, i like echo more.  
good luck

Neither of them are doing as good as the Berry!!! unless you have to keep all your fish, but catching alot of big cuts is way more fun than a bunch of measly little perch.

Lately i have been doing better in the evening than in the morning for perch at Echo and Jordanelle. I still have yet to catch a perch out of Rockport. The perch we were catching out of Echo were healthy fish. Rather than the hit and miss at Jordanelle on big perch.
