White perch as "live bait"
Theres a lake near me that has white perch (along with other "panfish"). Has anyone ever used live freshwater white perch as live bait for bass ?
I'm thinking of catching a bunch and using as a substitute for the alewifes.
Comments ?

I don't see why it wouldn't work. Caught this monster the other day, felt over 2#'s. RI record is 2#'s, may have beat it but I threw it back without an official weight.  |

I don't see why not. Stripers eat anything they can get down their throats.
And, white perch are anadromous, like stripers, so they will stay live in the salt.
