Perch fishing is still fun....

[BradBryant1000]

Took my son out to our pond for a little perch fishing this evening. Once it warms up a little (late spring early summer) they are easy to catch out of here. He's probably caught 15 in as many minutes. I decided to catch me a few also. It sure is still lots of fun watching that little cork go under from a perch. Anyways back to perch fishing I go.

Yes it is. I've fished all over the country, and a few places internationally, inshore, offshore, and I still like to go catch perch. Lol

Perch are excellent year round on a fly rod

Been taking my little dude last couple of weeks to the pond down the street at a church to do some perch jerking. He wants to go everyday. Embarrassing part is his mother took him and a couple of his friends one day and she thought of using the perch for bait and started catching bass.

Perch filets are absolutely marvelous to eat and make a helluva poboy sandwich. Stack'em like shrimp.

I finally got to wet a line this past weekend. Every one caught something. Even manage to haul in about a 1 lb channel cat yeehaw

Yes sir I like to eat perch also. Use to go to lake Fork and catch loads of them just for eating. Haven't done that in awhile. Need to do that soon.

We usually just throw them back in when we catch them in our pond. However we caught a few bigger ones out of here last year and we ate them.

Nice bass to end the day with.

It's always fun to go back to the basics!

Then that magical moment happens when a bass hooks up just like your pics.

For sure. I said catch one more then we'll go back to the house. He made it count. I was loading up the truck with my stuff and heard the splashing. Looked up and he was bringing the bass in. Was a fun evening.

Perch have saved a lot of fishing trips when nothing else was biting. I still remember my grandpa getting super excited when my cousin and I would pull in hand sized bluegill. Gut, scale, cut heads off and you’re ready to go.

OP, great job getting the young folks involved. You’re doin it right.

Yep. Never gets old.

I prefer perch fishing in my pond nowadays over catfishing. Lots of nonstop action.

Yes sir!
