Do you love big bluegill?

A beautiful 14” class yellow perch picked a blue/white popeye near bottom in five feet of water….I love when the fins turn bright orange/red…..

Thanks Tracy……I was very glad that my son-in-law got this bite….he has been fishing with me for more than ten years and I’ve tried to teach him everything I know about the sport…..most importantly have fun……..the great thing about fishing is a surprise like this is possible any time you go….

Thanks Bruce ….Joe was very excited to get his hands on this perch……I started him on fresh water fishing about ten years ago and he has probably caught 100 Yellow Perch up to 12”…..this one was over 14”……

Thanks John….Joe was very excited to see this fish…..I had just said we should see a few perch also when we each caught one…..tried to run the pattern and never saw another one….but a fish like this is why you go fishing……
