Found Some Nice Perch

Fished with Joe and Daryl. Temperature this morning was in the lower 40's and when we quit fishing it was in the middle 50's. It actually felt pretty nice out because the sun was shining for the whole trip. The wind was mostly out of the east less than 12 knots with waves between 1 and 2 feet. The water temp is 62 degrees. When we left port we headed back to the swamp. The water was pretty dirty but we tried fishing anyways. We fished for about 15 minutes and then we pulled anchor and headed to a spot we fished about 4 weeks ago, about 1 mile east of the E-Buoy, We set up here and the catching was slow. The fish would come through in waves but at least we were on some perch in cleaner water. It did not take too long for the fish to turn on and once they did it was game on. Caught the nicest catch of the season as far as size. Kept 135 perch and we only caught one silver bass. The largest perch was 11 1/4 inches.
