[SpareTime]

Went out Sat. Morning (sorry for the late post) for a few hours by the boat ramp at Metro. The perch were there chompin on the minnows. The sizes ranged from about 6-12". Ended up keeping about 10 decent sized ones (8" and up). There wasn't a whole lot of em, but most of them were keepers. The bite was pretty steady, not one right after the other, but, maybe about one every 5 min. or so. Enough to keep me there for a little while. The word was, the people on the docks were catchin' a few dinks.

spare time were you casting from shore by the boat ramp? if so slips or perch rigs. ?

Looks like a good place to chase 'em once that freezes by the weekend...

Were you using a jig or a spoon like a swedish pimple?

Ed, Conner, Fishn, went to the boat launch at self. people fishing from shore did not see anyone catching alot of fish. Open water all across Lake Saint Clair...... Maybe we will get some walkable ice by the weekend. If we do contact me I would like to meet up with the people on this forum!!!!!!!

I tried teardrops with waxies on a bobber and minnows on a bobber adn crawlers on a bobber and also on bottom......the only thing that worked for me was minnows on the bottom on a plain hook.

If you guys are in the park stop me and say Hi…. I’m the one in the park rig.

There were a good ten guys out on the end of the docks yesterday.

From what I heard I was out of town, but it sounded like they were hitting them real hard over on the boat launch over Christmas. Even caught word that the dnr caught two different guys with 50+ perch.

Hey GGM, I'll be out by Selfridge Sunday, Maybe we can hook up. Then, if Selfridge is slow, I'm gonna head down towards the marina at Metro. I think quite a few of the members out here will be making a trip out there this weekend. It should be ready by the weekend somewhere, I'm just hoping it's in the lake itself. Black snowsuit, green spud, and a Bud Light in my hand should give away who I am...:
