Jumbos

[Fish_Off]

I'll be going to Mille Lacs on Thursday to fish jumbo perch. This will be my first time jumbo fishing on the big pond so I was wondering how it works? (What lures/bait work, what type of structure, location, or depth should I start in) Any tips would be greatly appreciated and I'll be sure to post what worked(or didn't work) for me.

Fish Off

I've been fishing out of Twin Pines on the nw side and doing pretty good, find a flat fish off the edge in 30ft. plus.

I've been using buckshot spoons in a variety of colors tipped with a minnow head. Last Monday caught over 25 with 20 being over 10 inches and the biggest being 13. This Monday a little slower only caught 15 and only kept 5 around 10-11 inches. I did catch 12 eyes of course one day to late but what a blast. If you have a map and a gps you should be in good shape drill alot of holes until you find them.

Good luck

The biggest perch I caught on Sat 11-12" or so. Hit a medium shiner. I thought it was a walleye! The next 2 nice perch hit a rainbow. After that nothing. Well some lil perch with waxie and spoon. But when that window shuts down, it's down. Arr. Where's spring?

Fished 8 mile flat on thursday and ended up with six 9 1/2+ inch perch. Wax worms seem to be better than minnow heads and I was jigging with a small forage minnow. The bite only went for about an hour in the late morning and then again in the evening. Good Luck
