Elias been watching you since i was 22 almost 30 now. Your discipline and knowledge is insipiring. I have a 60ft floating home and a sailboat and a few other punts to fish out of. Watching you gave me the courage to pull it off

Top notch content as per usual. Gotta pick through a lot of tiny ones on that lake, but there are plenty of 13 inchers in there. Be safe out there. It can go from flat to 2 ft white caps in minutes.

I welcome white perch videos in any season! I wish the tidal creeks around me weren't so polluted with runoff, keeping any I catch there would be pretty gross, at least I can get some at reservoirs occasionally, though I wish I could figure out where to find and reach them from shore more consistently

@@williamleidy6713 I’ve boated several citation sized channel cats on perch as well. The best part, in my opinion, is that it’s way tougher than shad and the little ones don’t pull it off the hook so easy.

@@williamleidy6713 me neither usually, but they’re a pretty common bycatch. Last trip I caught 6 channels around 5 pounds, a 20.1 pound blue, a 37.7 pound blue and a 50.2 pound blue. Dragging cut perch on Santee rigs with 10/0 hooks. Was back in October. Then I got knocked down by cancer and am just now getting things together to get back after them.

Hi Elias, i have noticed this as well here in Holland. Sometimes they bite when you fish with the current, and sometimes against it.

I just looked it up, don't know exactly which state you're in, but the North Carolina state record of a White Perch is 2 pounds 15 oz. "Neuse Reservoir" in December of 2001, the NC fish and game website says the record perch was caught on a strata spoon.

Wow, love the perchpocalypse there. Serious chunkers, those white perch! Seems like the bruisers were all in the tidal creek section, with the pondies running smaller. Do you find that the salinity edge tends to produce bigger perch generally?

Awesome video! Can't wait for striper season here in Canada on April 15. I would love to target WP this year but I'm trying to learn their migratory patterns. Any advice on where to start in early spring? Water temps are usually around around 8-10 degrees C (46-50F) in our rivers on April 15th. Should I be starting shallow upriver or focusing mainly on tributaries and eventually estuaries? The main source of food are minnows and sand eels.

@secretjourney4815 9 ай бұрын

Stripers in Canada?? I remember I took a trip to PEI about 20 years ago. I saw huge schools of sand eels along the beach and thought “this would be a cool place for stripers to live” As it turns out I was talking to some locals and they told me there was a small striper fishery on the island.

@AmbitiousAnglerFishing 9 ай бұрын

@@secretjourney4815 Yes, they have been around since then. I'm not sure if it was COVID/social media era that got more anglers into the sport and now they seem to be caught in big numbers now. More are being caught in local lobster traps as well which I have never seen in my 10+ years of lobster fishing. Certainly, there are more plentiful striper areas to fish but they are being seen island wide now. They seem to migrate from the Miramichi River after spawning, in New Brunswick over to PEI.

Ironic how you mentioned the successful survivability rates of catch and release Stripers in cold water. Here in Maryland and on the Chesapeake our DNR is thinking about closing down catch and release in the fall when the waters are traditionally much cooler.
