Felt Like Winter



Fished with Captain Daryl and Dale. Temperature this morning was in the lower 30s and when we quit fishing it was in the lower 60s. The wind was out of the west southwest around 10 knots with waves less than a foot. With the cool temps and the wind it made for a very cold morning. Started fishing right out in front of the beach. We caught a few fish but not enough to keep us in this area. After a few moves here we headed out to our hot spot, which is a 10 mile ride. When we arrived there the water was very dirty. After half an hour and only 1 perch we decided to head back to the beach and finish out the day. Got a report from a good friend that they were catching fish on the Michigan side of Turtle Island so we headed out there. The fishing was steady and the fish were all about the same size so it made for an enjoyable day on the water. Kept 79 perch between 8 and 10 1/2 inches with most of the fish around 8 1/2 inches.

Do you eat them? and if you do, do you eat anything else -- as many as you catch you could feed an army!
