Felt Like Summer

Fished with Captain Dan. Temperature this morning was in the lower 60s and when we quit fishing it was in the upper 70s. WOW! The wind was out of the southeast less than 10 knots and the waves were less than a foot. The water temp is 54 degrees. Started fishing by the 1 and 2 buoys on the River Raisin and we only caught 1 small perch. Made a move to our hot spot (41 50 905 / 083 14 976) and we started to catch some fish. We made one little move (about 100 feet) because the catching slowed down and we were on fish again. We caught a lot of perch but we were not keeping anything under 8 1/2 inches. The fish would come through in schools and we had 4 triple headers of perch. Kept 57 perch on a summer like day. We tried to clean the fish at Sterling State Park but the electricity was not working so we cleaned them at home.
