27 seems like a lot of fish for 2 guys to take home in a day. What is the limit these days? Haven't fished for perch in a long time and would love to take home a bunch of big ones.

Majority of the Lakes in PP1 and PP2 are 15 unless specified as 5. Fincastle is near Taber. If you're gonna to travel that far from Cowtown, better to make it a 2 day trip. Perhaps try Sherburne as it holds good populations of Perch and Walleye!
