John thanks for the reports! Can you tell me a little bit about the body of water you are fishing for these perch? What is the pipe with runoff water entering, a river?

Thanks CHarlie

Many many Yellows along with a few Gills and dink Bass fishing the day after flooding rains .The muddy water near the entering pipe of runoff had YPerch STACKED near it . 64th oz. Trout Magnets left to fall to the bottom were picked up by  9-11" YP.All eight  colors in the box caught them . Crawlers and Crawler pieces and plain Yellow Bucktails  too.

HI, I am from S.E. Michigan and catching big perch is my favorite thing to do fishing!  Any perch fisherman here from my area?
Comment by John Sheehan on January 25, 2011 at 8:14am
After checking on limits in the 2011NJFW Digest,the Perch take allowed is actually 25 in combo with Sunfish not 50 like I stated below.Not sure where I got that first figure now? A few lakes have a 10 fish limit .
Comment by Jim Gronaw on January 23, 2011 at 7:11pm
Angler survey on Deep Creek Lake in MD encouraged a 10 yellow perch limit per angler per day so the DNR made it so. I think this may save the trophy fishery at this lake where you have the chance to ice 10 fish a day from 13 to 15 inches long. These perch do not quite get the skeletal length of the Great Lakes fish, but their body dynamics lend to realistic chances for a 2-pound trophy.

There is no limit on Lake Champlain.    Smaller lakes it is 50 here also no limit on sunnies.    There should be a limit on Champlain also.   The fishing is not as good as it was 40 years ago here.   I keep between 30 and 35 that maks a great meal and a few left overs for my lunch the next day.

       We do have some Bluegills here but the Pumpkinseed or sunnie is more abundent

That a way Howard !Inspirational catch there!

 

What's the daily limit for keeping Perch up there in Vermont ?In New Jersey it's 50 no size minimum,same as Sunfish.
