Perch are hungry little buggers

[stan55]

Opted for a change of pace and decided to chase rainbows at Rockport. Caught a bunch of mid-teen bows trolling squids. Fish were holding around 25 feet down. Would have caught more except for the perch. I marked schools holding at 25 ft over depths from 70 to 100 feet down. Everytime I hit a school I had to reel in my gear because there would be a perch on it. Worse than cutts on the Berry. I was trolling in 70 feet and was getting hit so often I moved to deeper water and the perch were out there as well. Caught a grundle of 7 to 9 inchers. The photo below is just one of the times I had two on same lure.

Should be good ice fishing this winter.
