Yellow perch bites very light and it may take a novice a while to get the hang of it. Many days we get on a "hot" bite and fish go into the cooler as fast as you can, reel them in, re-bait, and get your line back to the fish.
Throughout Lake Erie, yellow perch tend to be found near or on the lake bottom. We fish perch with minnows on spreaders or perch rigs. Moving the bait on or near the bottom and jigging up and down results in the best catches. Example of different perch rigs below.
Perch update for population success often translates into great perch fishing
Update on the Yellow Perch population in Lake Erie. Important to note that perch fishing success in the western basin of Lake Erie around the islands and west has been very good. The perch population is still going strong. Anglers are catching perch whether they're fishing from their boat or on a perch charter! Regardless, good numbers are being caught almost daily, this is where you'd want to be for perch.
You won't want to miss out on some mid-summer prime perch fishing beginning in late June through July. Some of the most enjoyable days on the lake for the family. Children of all ages who can turn the handle on a reel will be helping to make a true family experience, as well as just have a great time.
Best Times to Perch Fish
Probably the best time frame mentioned earlier begins in late June and goes into the first week or so of August! That has been known to be one of the best periods for fast action! During the previous 6 years it seems, is when the action heats up, and the fish are biting like crazy.
Most people believe that perch fishing in the fall is the only time, and they couldn't be more wrong!
