chicago perch fishing report

Damien made it out both today and back on Tuesday locally for some tasty Chicago perch. He did very well both days with good numbers and a few of the fish were over 14 inches. The bite still seems strong if you know where to look. As for me, I've been going back and forth on where to fish tomorrow, but its hard to walk away from a hot bite!

  4. Blake I have never eat a perch, do they taste anything like a trout. Did the fly rod land all these, if so what was the set-up? Thanks for sharing--by the way my buddy was blown away by the video.
