Default Great Perch Fishing Report

Was fishing in Alberta last week and got to a bunch of lakes. The fishing was great and the weather was perfect. A couple days out I did some perch fishing and had some success off a mid lake hump using a drop shot type rish with a small jig and single hook tipped with a leach. Tested out the Bait buttons and they really do work great to hold the bait in place. Several times I'd get 2-3 hits a cast and still end up catching the fish, which means they weren't just swimming away with my bait everytime. Made a video with more information if you're interested. Most of the perch were 10-12 inches. Also had luck catching a bunch of walleye in the same spot.

Here is a video if you'd like to watch.

Haha... well I'll let you arrange the first part and then I'll gladly take the slot I didn't know the dimestore fisherman was still on tv.

Glad you guys enjoy it.

I think you meant PS you can use Barbed, right?

Yeah I've read about that. Apparently still illegal in Alberta but they are unable to fine you do to a change in legislation. I like using barbless anyways... makes the release easier on all those pesky good for nothing walleye

Good video....looks like Garner is still producing! Would be a lot more enjoyable fishing without all the boaters! A piece of rubber from a jig body works well for holding bait on also...

Haha, I'm not a coffee drinker though. Guess I'm getting used to this talking to a camera. It is a little odd, talking to yourself (camera) out on the boat all alone. Takes a little practice. Some of my out takes are funny.

I'm glad it worked for you guys! This is basically just a modified drop shot which is a big craze for bass fisherman. We've been doing it for years though.

Fishing is great, but catching is better. I like going catching, haha. Keep up the catching!

I'll post some other videos soon as I have time to make them, on also nailing walleye on the same rig.
