Saturdays 1-3" in the lakes region turned out to be a travel night mare but provided some fast white perch fishing once the front advanced...

I had set up my favorite lakes region lake shortly after sun rise, to be joined by The Dad fisherman and Rockport 24.... we set for rain bows ( that were a no show) and white perch...at noon the only cutomers were a few large pickerel.. as the snow picked up in intensity around 1PM the flags began to pop.. a combination of live smelt on tip ups and jigs tipped with dillies in 22-24' of water provided a combo limit of 13 white perch and 2 yellow perch... I'v got more pictures on my cell phone ( left at home today).. here's a few i got afterwards ( excet the pickerel) becasue my camera was in a back pack 100 yards away from the action.. once located.. chum in the form of cut smelt kept them in the area.. proven by an annalsis of the stomach content of one some of the whites...
