You guys are way off....that fish is identical in size to the 16 pound mount at One Shot on the Canal. We did not have a scale or a tape but we layed it out and it measured 24 inches in length.....I have a huge fist and when we were holding the fish (before we released it) I took my fist and it fit in the fishes mouth with room for me to move it in a circular motion.....quite a fish mark my words. 5 pounds...7 pounds...I don't think so! I must say that fish was over 10 easy. But alas....I guess I really have no proof...but I believe me...I was there!

Fishchicks 2nd day fishing ever! Her first day she caught a 3 pound large and a white perch she could have gotten a state pin for...released!

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

Avery good friend of mine named Dan Morin recently got a 16.6 pound laker out of wachusett. He specializes in the use of yellow perch for bait. He comes to the cape and we go jigging in ice fishing season for 3 and four inch perch. he keeps them alive in a tank just for fishing wachusett. the ones that croak he freezes and uses on the bottom for lakers as well. Dan used to fish the beach hard in the old days, he is amemeber of the one night, 1000 pond club. Monomoy of course.

Why even try.........

Thanks Big fish the fish was 23" long with a 17" girth. Flap I saw the picture of that 16+at B&A nice fish I take my hat off to your buddy. People dont realize the great bait that yellow perch can make. It's just such a natural and aboundant bait that all fish feed on.
