Archive: My biggest Yellow Perch 08-20-2007

Well I've been completely striking out in the yak. I'm so new to the water I'm taking the yak out on that I'm too busy exploring, and I'm not finding 'the spots' ...so after 5 hours striking out in the yak, I took to shore to a fun little harbour that always is full of suprises. The water turned extremely cold the last few days in comparison to what it was a week ago, and out came this guy, the perch are usually finger sized at this spot, 13.5" ..my biggest in the 30 years I've been catching them.
