Default Summer Perch techniques

love fishing for perch in the winter but never had much success in the summer. Just wondering if anybody would be willing to share what they use for summer perch rigs and where you can find them?

In and around weeds. Small jigs or slip bobbers. small piece of worm or small leeches or small minnows(dead).

Certain lakes I would agree, now some other lakes shallower the better.
Find the points go to the sides and work the flats, weed edges and then from 3' out to 30'. It may may take awhile but you should find them, small fikas jigs loaded with maggots 2"-12" off the bottom. Good luck and tight lines.
