WT 70-73. AT 65-75. Wind light. Got up at 5 am and caught alewives at my dock light. Got plenty and had a huge xmas tree what a pain. Started pulling a BW creek around 6:15. Started marking fish pretty quick. Caught a 22" on a down rod at 20'. Circled back with no love. Got to the next point and hooked up on a 29" on a light line float. Swing and missed on another on a free line bank side board. Had 2 more pull downs on light lined floats. Called it at 10am when the 3rd jet ski came by within 5 feet of my boards. The kids Caught multiply species from the dock as well. Good weekend at the lake.

Thanks for the good report. I didn't know there were yellow perch in this lake. I would love to catch a mess of them.

Lots of yellow perch but not many big concentrations. I've caught several citations in the last couple years here.

That's a nice white perch - and a mess of a line to untangle

Are they white perch or white bass? Looking on the dgif site it seems like they are white bass but everyone calls them white perch. From the description the perch are found in more salt water and the bass in fresh.

that's a white perch. There are potentially still some white bass in the lake - thought the perch have mostly displaced the white bass....
