Found some perch

[Brittany Chukarman]

Perch and crappie for our Friday fish fry. I anchored in 45' of water on a mixed school holding around 30' deep. One drop would be crappie, next drop perch. Lots of small crappie from 4-8". Released a couple nice smallmouth and got broke off a few times. Deep fryer on the deck with music and refreshments this evening.

Any alge issues at the lake? Looks like a fun time was had. This warm weather sure does drop the fish down.

Yes, big difference from last week. You could see stringy,wavy patterns down in the water.

Nice catch. Did you launch at Hewitt, Holcomb or on the Snake proper? Wondering about water levels at the ramps.

Hewitt. Holcomb is ok also. Not much usable doc at Hewitt. I'll have to check Holcomb to see how much dock is in the water. I like it better as the ramp is steeper.

Closest fish to a walleye in my reservoir. They are hard to find regularly. Here today, gone tomorrow.
