Yellow Perch tips? Snohomish county
<< < (2/3) > >>
Shrimper:
On first perch you land, fillet small thin skinless strips off of that and use for bait.  This will out fish most other baits 10-1 in Lake Stevens for perch.  This method is also very effective for bass in Lake Stevens too, with larger fillet strips. Good Luck!

Mfowl:
The Danielson double drop rigs are excellent for perch. Also just a standard bait plunking rig with egg sinker, barrel swivel and hook leader. A chunk of nightcrawler is the best starting bait but once you get into them chunks of actual perch meat work really good too! Small jigs/curlytails and beetlespins are standards as well. When drop shotting I usually use a heavy lure like a castmaster or small dart as the weight with hook/bait about 18" up from that. In the warm water months I catch them often on bass plugs, sometimes as big as they are. If you are fishing from shore a jig or bait under a bobber in the weeds will get them too.

Keep it simple, bobber an a small piece of night crawler. Or worm on the bottom. We get a bunch at fish lake. Good eats an fun to fish.
jason stevens:
I know you said snohomish county  but fish lake is 1.5 hour drive. It's worth the trip
Skillet:
If I had to pick one lure to fish perch with for he rest of my life,  it would be a 2" chrome Swedish Pimple with a perch eye on a #6 hook.
