Thanks for sharing Sir. That slush is a bear! Last year we had the same problem with it. I have a quick question for you please. Did you notice that the fish were primarily feeding on bloodworms or minnows this season? Last year they spit worms and the year before were minnows. Thanks again!

ssdpqd2531 25-30 feet is right on the threshold where you start to see barotrauma. We had a few smaller fish that we reeled up too fast that suffered barotrauma that we kept. We found the fish did much better by simply reeling them up slow.

I love in West Virginia and the biggest perch I catch is 15inches.

Are the fish illegal to keep or what....😮

Do you ever keep perch that are in the 1 1/2 pound range or bigger or do you always release them? If you do keep them does that hurt the population?

@JasonMitchellOutdoors

4 жыл бұрын

ssdpqd2531 I released them. I wouldn’t mind mounting a really big fish but I have caught fish like that before and didn’t feel the need to keep any. Cascade is somewhat unique because these fish seem to live longer and are older than perch on lakes we fish in the Dakotas. We kept a few smaller fish to eat one evening and a few anglers kept a few fish for the taxidermist. In regards to hurting the population, that can really depend on a lot of factors but we like to use some self restraint.

We drill a lot of holes and fished a lot of different kinds of spots until we put a general pattern together. We tried shallow points and didn’t seem much. Tried the old river channel and caught smaller fish. We had our best luck on deep points in 22-35 feet. We pick a lot of wrong spots until we figure things out. Be persistent.

I personally like to use a lot of braid or super line when I am jigging. I like the no stretch, durability and toughness. Some people think it freezes up but it is easier to slide the ice off the line than mono and it is much tougher. Often use a fluorocarbon leader. Using six pound Frost Braid.
