Hit the nell today and did really well. Caught 25 or so bows a perch and a nice cut. All but one were caught on some homemade iceflies and ratfinkies. Got the perch first in about 35-40 ft. of water. had multiple hits by some perch but the hits were just too light. We moved to about 30 ft of water and got into the trout. It was non-stop from about 11:00 to about 1:30. A lot of fun. Here is a pic of the perch, he spit out about 5 minnows when he came through the hole. Sorry for the quality it was on a cell phone.
thanks for the report. maybe ill make it up there sometime this year. i dont see the picture?
Nice report. What part of the lake were you fishing?
cool i can see pic now, nice fat perch
We were fishing the rock cliff arm of the lake.
What kind of minnows did the perch burp up? Small perch or what?
That perch is about as fat as me! Nice going!
They look like baby perch… They hang around the submerged brush in the rick cliff arm. Glad to hear that the fishing is picking up there. [:)]
I am no expert but they did look like baby perch to me. They had broad lines down thier sides just like an adult perch. I wish i could have caught more but my buddy was killing the trout in shallower water and i couldn’t resist the fast action.
