Fat Perch

[Duke]

Teaching has become a part-time job. Had another day off today - fog. I think we'll get out for the summer on the 4th of July.   

Anyhow, I made the most of my day. I got real intimate with my new Vexilar. I couldn't mark any fish deep except for one and it didn't like what I dropped down to it. Nevertheless, I was catching some really fat perch between 5-6' all over the lake. They were real hungry and their bellies were about to burst. I was a bit surprised, but pleased. I only caught one bluegill. Seems that the perch were scaring the bluegill away (I'm sure thats not the case). Nevertheless, I was able to make the day into a positive. Looking forward to getting out again Saturday.

I will acknowledge that it was WET. My feet were soaked before the day was over. But I still found 10-11" of ice everywhere. Wonder how much longer that will last.

You guys got to be good to cast into those small holes

It depends on how close you stand to the hole

Puts a whole new perspective on the term " flippin' the holes" doesn't it?
