BBP = Big Bay Perch
(Preview)
I launched out of Garden this morning to go looking for some perch. I tried a couple spots without much luck other than a smal rock bass and a small perch. So I thought I'd try some deeper water and that was a waste of time. I figured I'd head back to where I started and was running along aboit 20 MPH and saw so...

July 28th Frustration!

Yesterday was very frustrating for me, not because the fish didn't bite, they were doing their part, but mostly because of the lack of common courtesy and fishing etiquette that some of these Cabela's / MWC guys have. I love having the tourn...

I fished for perch out of Fairport last night and only ended up with two perch and half dozen small bass. Even though I only caught a few fish, the pictures in this thread show why it's nice just be out on the water on such a nice night. -- Edited by Tomjohn on Wednesday 27th of July 2011 06:22:55 PM
