Default Got my PB Perch :)

Headed north yesterday, the original lake we were headed to was inaccessible due to DEEP mud. We made a trip alteration and whammo, PB Perch He was battered and in the frying pan within 10 minutes along with some onion rings.

Congratulations timsesink, that's definitely a gooder.

I really miss good perch fishing, when a person could catch several close to that size in a day.
Do yourself a favour and never, ever divulge the location. Perch are like elk, people go screwy over them.

Agreed Put in a little work and good things happen. Clouds cleared right around 2pm and we had golden sunshine.

I was so hungry I forgot to tape it. I'd guess 12-13", I know you as the Perch King get better every day but it was pretty big for me!
