I havent either honestly, I thought that was more trout country, but then I havent fished south of PCR..lol

[howlin]

ya i figured as much ,what about strathmore area .thoes are my two haunts (i dont get out much)

[baitfisher83]

Are you in Calgary????Only two places I know of for perch around here, Sundance<need to be a resident> and Carburn park ponds in the south of the city.....unfortunately these are the only places i've fished for perch so there's probably more around here but I dont know about them....Sherburn has perch if you dont mind a long drive<2.5 hrs>

The closest place iv seen in the regs thats near the pass that has perch in the lake is Cochrane lake (as i know it) near hill springs. While i havent yet heard of perch taken or seen any.... (mind you i havnt fished it in a few years now) there are a decent amount of pike in there as well.

Eagle lake near Strathmore has Perch in it. Crawling Valley does as well, and isnt too far away from you either howlin.
