Perry report

anybody headed to perry this weekend?

 

Anyone had any luck this week? I hooked into some eaters but nothing of any size.

 

this was caught at the weir last night by some other guys. they asked if we wanted it so i took it and let it go after they left

 

where might I find some of this magic stuff?

I had plans to go to perry for a change this weekend, but forgot my inlaws were comming. Maybe I will get out one of these days.

 

thank you Tom. i wasn't payin much attention and posted about the river in the lakes section. i wasnt even drinkin either :smile2:

 

fished perry today. water was pretty clean overall, not a lot of mud in it. temp on the boat showed about 50. was pretty cool, windy morning, and the bite was slow. Put in at old town and went north to the island and fished the west side. managed four fish 3 eaters and 1 went 8 lbs. used fresh shad which were not under the bridge in any good numbers and liver. Liver seemed to be the better bait today.

I cant seem to upload an attachment to this site. hope you guys and see the links

 

we were at the spillway down by the dirt ramp but didnt get nothin. glad you had some good fishin and got some. :big_smile:

 

Yes, I thought it was still pretty cool, and the sun didnt come out very fast to warm me up. I fished the flats with no luck. after an hour without even seeing a fish splash, i moved to the river and found some that would bite. in the afternoon, I did see some carp moving around in the flats and I tried a flat right below those houses, but did not get any bites. I remembered you saying the bite stopped last week at noon, so I gave it up about 2pm. I caught my fish between 9-10.

sounds like rain off and on all this week and cool. maybe someday I will be able to fish without coveralls? at least it wasnt snowing!

 

there was some water commin out but nothin to speak of yesterday.

 

Where as everyone been catching shad at?

 

i was with a gal last night that has a bunch. well she smelled like she did anyway:smile2:

 

JJ I think I would throw that one back!

 

We need to talk JJ!!!oooh:

 

THank you for the info and the fish that you caught looks like your having a good time so far, glad to hear your doing good and I wish you many more fish throughout the year I think this is going to be one of the best years for fishing in a while.

 

What does the north end look like today? Full of trash?
I WAS considering heading that way tomorrow.
