Gastro Gnome - Eat Better Wherever

Slab of the day.

Boy wish we had then around here like that. Biggest I ever got here in Oregon was 13" and then just the one!
 
Caught my first yellow perch this morning. I’m so excited we have them in our lake now. Caught it off a minnow around 15ft deep along with a few crappie. If anyone has any tips on a better way to fish for them I’m all ears. This is a deep, clear reservoir.

Looks good!

For bigger perch, you can fish them with almost anything. Minnow and a jig typically does really good around here.. Through the ice, I catch them on a small jig and a plastic or waxie typically! I usually find the best numbers in soft bottom areas where there's more bugs!
