You can get foot LNG perch here too, if you line up about 5 of them nose to tail.

If you pinch the tail.

Frank Lake has been producing really big perch and lake trout this year.

Perch love Cargill effluent. It's tricky to find those 20ft holes at Frank....

I like the ones with the three eyes the best, they are pretty tasty.

Very nice Perch! I myself hope to get some tomorrow! Heading out with my boy. The trick is getting set up before the sun comes up!

Those are some fine looking perch! Nice job.

Fish the weed beds at Frank for some monster bass. Buzzbaits and frog imitations are key.
