Fished with Joe. Temperature this morning was in the lower 60's and when we quit fishing it was in the lower 70's. The wind was out of the northwest less than 10 knots with waves less than 6 inches. The water temp is 73 Degrees. When we left the house this morning the fog was terrible and on the ride to the marina it was pretty bad. We were thinking that we might not make it out fishing in the morning. Once we got to the River Raisin on I-75, the fog was gone. As we headed out of the harbor into the lake there was no fog, lucky us! Started fishing about 2 miles east of the E buoy and we caught 2 perch real quick and then nothing. We were marking some fish,so we pulled anchor and backed up about 100 feet and dropped anchor again. That's all it took and we started to catch some perch. We bought 2 scoops of minnows and we used them all. Kept 91 perch and we had to put back about 4 small perch. We only caught about 8 white perch. Just a nice day to be perch fishing. One of the few trips that I can recall that we did not have to measure any of the perch. The smallest perch we kept was 8 1/2 inches.
