This is the first year I've fished Erie and have heard some great things about the spring and fall perch fishing. Is it too early to try for some perch this weekend? I will be fishing out of SBH. Any tips would be appreciated. Thanks

Early spring perch, from ice off to end of spawning, can be found in shallow water, like ten foot of water and less. Using light action spinning rods with a split shot or two and a double hook, and emerald shiners, cast off the boat and slowly bring the minnow back to the boat. The boat spooks the perch away but by casting out you can reach the perch schooling up to prepare to spawn in the warmer shallow water. Even if ice is present they will be there on the beach. Casting away from the boat will bring the perch closer as they follow the slow moving minnows.

Has anyone reported on the ice conditions in the SBH? Has there been any good fishing yet? Where is the best place(s) to get bait?

Has anyone been fortunate enough to be out perch fishing? If so, how have you done? I've been busy chasing venison with no luck yet. Merry Christmas to all members.

Michigan waters for perch? Heading out Fri am looking for resent reports of perch locations. Went out last Wed and they were in 24-26' we got 4 man limit. Went out Sunday found them in 21-23' after checking the spot we limited at 4 days prior likely due to cooler temps.

A few boats daily fishing for perch now but no reports from them, start looking at 55 foot depths. That is where the mud bottom meets the shale bottom and the mud is where the critters that perch feed on live. You can move out to 65 and 70 foot now the lake surface temperature is at 77 degrees. The perch can suspend above the thermocline but dive deeper to feed on the bottom mud. Your fish finder may indicate fish schools ten foot solid on the bottom at this time of year and you will only be able to handle one line as the perch will be on as soon as your line hits bottom. Extra lines result in fewer fish and lost bait as you waste time rebaiting those extra lines. Good luck and remember those unharvested perch do a number on your walleye and bass populations.

Perch Page-Spring 2017 If you Perch hounds are like me.... your pretty new perch rigs are all tied, fresh line down, reels lubed etc. Just chomping at the bit to get out there & whack em. Looking at my records from last year, my first trip to Erie perchn was March 26th...and whatta day it was!!! Has anyone been out yet? We have been "picking away" at em around the finger lakes a little. Nothing crazy.

I haven't tried the perch fishing off Lorain for a few weeks. Anyone having luck yet, or are the little walleye still stealing the shiners?
