Yellow Perch in the shallows (some Gills too) in November ,YES! Jig and crawler piece slip floated @4'.They can be caught out in the basin areas drifting and dragging same bait .Yellow Perch are active!

Getting some Perch on bottom with jig/crawler piece.Wrist snapping spoons off bottom also. They are scavenging sand/pebble bottoms.
