Mods can move it if they like.

Or I modify the title to who wants to discuss Notley's budget while catching perch.

I take it your not interested. :sign0161:

Sundance that is very cool of you to offer a guided fishing trip like that no matter what thread you posted in... kudos to you.

Unfortunately its not practical for me this weekend... thanks for the invite!

Xbolt7mm 03-18-2017 01:12 PM

No prob. Tons of perch for sure. Had a couple Gents out with ones little boy. I fished 4.5 hrs. Caught 7 rainbows, 6 brookies and 92 perch.

I call that a trifecta. A brown would of given me a grand slam.

Super great day.

drhu22 03-18-2017 07:14 PM

That sounds like a great day! How big are the fish you catch, and are they good eating?

I caught about 170 perch today plus 34 brookies and 30 rainbows.

Pretty boring. Perch are full of eggs.

the local angler 03-19-2017 06:55 PM

ya i should have come fish with you the bike show was a total joke. the entire building at the big 4 had like maybe a dozen tents from various bike shops and that was it, some kids jumping on the ramps. took me like 5 min to see everything after paying $15 for parking and $10 entrance. sheesh. so to salvage the day i paid another $15 to check out the international auto and truck show since i already paid for the parking, that was an awsome show. glad you did well out there kev

Average 5-7 inches. About a dozen just over 7.

They are very good eating.

If anyone lives down south there is a chance I may get out perch fishing in the evening after work.

Sundancefisher 03-20-2017 07:47 PM

Cold night hot fishing
 
Caught 36 perch in 1 hour tonight from 6:30-7:30 pm. 2/3 between 7 and 8 inches. Fat little perch.

Kicked you butt in round the dock race. Next time I suspect you will be a bit more competitive.

BStillie58 03-23-2017 11:40 AM

How many inches of ice is still left on the lake? :shark:

I'd love to get out one last time this season. I haven't been on the ice in a while now it seems. If you guys are doing Sunday I'm game. Or if you want company tomorrow after work I'm free after 4.

Lake ice is closed. Fishing off a dock. Only 5000 left under it to catch.

So about 150 in 2 hours. I figure in the last week we pulled over 1000 perch from under the dock with no end in Sight. Crazy. For a bit I was landing 2 perch a minute. The brookies and rainbows make for a nice distraction from all the perch. Interesting we both had grand slams. 4 species outing.

Brookie
Rainbow
Perch
lake chub


Still waiting for someone to catch a little brown.

were you thinking of coming out today? I am looking to go out again. Problem is anyone interested must be okay with catching 100 perch, 10 rainbows and brookies and taking all perch home. :bad_boys_20:

Still waiting to see someone catch a brown. Stocked 1000 rainbows, 1000 brookies and 800 browns in the fall...Still yet to see the browns.
