Notes
Was told the West dock was the better of the two and perch were being taken. Got there and sure enough there were three people catching some nice perch and a few sunfish. Some of the perch around the 12" to 13" size (females full of eggs.) Most were around 8" to 9" range or smaller. Was surprised to learn they were more interested in worms than wigglers or minnows. While wigglers and minnows caught a fish or two, worms were better. Fished with a bobber set at about two feet deep and casted straigth out from dock. Found one grub in fillet but didn't thourghly inspect the rest.
