Personal best perch

[RACKER]

Was out fishing at South Buck yesterday and had a good day of fishing.I was targeting perch with my little ice rod with 3 lb test and was lucky enough to land a big one.I was suprised to catch walleye in 5 fow on a sunny day darn near right in the weeds.Had to quit using my little rod cause walleyes kept snapping my line!Also managed to catch a keeper walleye as well.It was a good day on the water except for the massive build up of algae.

That's a fatty, light rod and line too, would have been in for it if 40" gator slipped in for a bite!

Very nice Perch, congrats!

Well done, so much more challenging to find a good perch spot.

Nice meal. I've come to the conclusion that the big perch of south buck are loners. Very hard to catch more than one or two big perch any given day of the year, open water or ice fishing.

Dandy looking fish!

Nice slab, as you stated with the walleye, seems they can be unpredictable, but I guess if they are hungry they will be where bait fish are, bin catching some big walleye this year on the fly rod, floating line no less, when people hear that they look at me like I'm on crack, hahahahahaha..........

What a beast of a perch . I bet the walleye was scared to hit your bait until you pulled that beast out of the way. Yummy
