Throwing lures or bait for the White Perch Mike?

Drive 3 hrs each way to someplace in NY to pick up my son who just spent 3 weeks in Conakry, Guinea, then if the snows not too bad out to dinner and then Sunday do wood and the Pats. And read 500+ pages of spec's for a project.

bRI , lures , small jigs …….. real nice ones .but to be honest . the skunk the last 3. 4 trips .

we did a switch & went F/W last time out ……...small jigs & bait .& we caught the largest yellow perch I,ve caught in RI . not one but just about everyone ……

been messing around getting a couple of F./W setups ready .started last year ,but didn,t follow up enough .
With the passing of denny I really don,t know what this year is going to bring besides trying to sell a bunch of stuff ::

I keep meaning to do some searching down near you ..But I havn,t got there .last weeks 46 miles one way ride for steamers & the tide didn,t go sucked :mad:

Let's wait for a warm day in March and give it a try in the river at the spring schoolie spot(s) down here... :kewl:

RIRH sounds like a plan .But I,m still going to try down there soon , because many times the winter places arn,t the spring places ><>

Where the hell are you going for steamers? Wherever it is, it's too far. If you drag a boat down there are plenty of steamers in the Great Salt Pond and Potter's Pond.

Clammer 01-19-2019 06:39 PM

no boat Mike , I need a boat for salt pond & potters

If I had a tide , I,d have smoked them .its just we get a good tide up here & doesn,t go down there .
&&& it goes the opposite also I,ll get a call of ..it should be a good tide there & I don,t go ……..they do well .
the problem with the ones down there is their shells are so soft … everything / way except a suction pump smashes them :smash:

You have a suction pump?

Clammer 01-20-2019 03:44 PM

the toilet plunger doesn,t work where I went .its all dry digging & some are using that suction tube that you can buy on line / which is used a lot on the west coast for razor clams ><>

I use a wide tined rake made from a bent pitchfork. Works well. A friend of mine who was a professional digger up in ME made it for me. Works well for dry digging.

Clammer 01-21-2019 01:44 PM

for steamers I have a wide & long tine head that is welded to a steel back braker handle for steamer s ..……..I have a custom short rake head welded on a stubby handle for necks dry digging .
I havn,t used the churning setups for years ><>

Ha! Had a colonoscopy on Tuesday. What fun! Only took 20 minutes this time. Napped all day after that. Wife has the flu.

albythereforyou 01-26-2019 08:48 AM

I just want one day off. just one. Can't wait for spring, fishing, and a day not painting, doing computer work, or selling art...

going over to Powderhorn outfitters today to meet and talk about getting some of my work in his shop. The guy with the most guns is always a good guy to know ;)

Got Stripers 01-26-2019 09:19 AM
