Jumbo Perch Still Hitting Of Pier In Erie PA

Went out at 5:00am. Was amazed that Jumbo lakers were still hitting off the pier. Caught 12 nice perch. One laker was 15 inches with a wide girth. Weighed 2.1 lbs. this would have been a state contender if it still had eggs. This was post spawn, with no eggs. Water temp getting hot, won't be long to they head deep.

A Nice Mix Of Panfish For The Bucket

Headed to Presque Isle to target crappie. Only caught 3 crappie, but many pan fish were hitting. Bluegill, rock bass, perch, and a few large mouth. Used a variety of jigs and plastics. Nice fillets for the table.

Found A Couple Of Points In Erie County PA

Went to check out a field yesterday on my day off. Spent the morning fishing in the rain, and then headed out to a field in Erie County. Found two points, both pretty much complete. Have worked this field several times before. Usually good for a point or two, but not much sign. Did see a lot of footprints. Looking was good with wet ground. Walked about 5 hours to get these two. A lot of walking for a reward of two artifacts.

Nice Limit Of Trout In Erie County Stream

Had a day off work today, went in the county to fish Temple Creek. Rain steady in the morning, but the creek was flowing perfect. Caught a nice number of trout, all on live minnows. Kept the largest 5 for my son, who loves to eat them. 4 Brookies and 1 brown. Nice quality fish, largest Brook Trout was 15 inches. Except for the steady rain, a nice day to be off work. The fish were there.
