    Perch fishing on canandaigua

    in Finger Lakes Discussion

    Hey Denny just to add, by the way keep knocking on Les's door for info, one of the elite perch masters in the FL's. If you have electric motor for stealth. Any gas motor noise kills the bite. Anchoring near the expected location doesn't help. Bouy markers or gps as you drift when you bang a couple then come back way up wind and drop anchor is an old trick. Right now 2-4lb flouro with small jigs tipped with spikes minnows etc probably would be you best bet. I always say try to find your own school. Keep rods in the water don't lift fish out with boats going by will keep your intruders at bay. We're always learning.

    Excellent info! Yah I have and older minnkota 30# or 40# transom mount that I have to see if will move my boat....I don't know tho...I think it had a hard time moving my 15ft canoe if I remember correctly. I will keep this advice handy and it's very much appreciated. Now if I can retain it.....I seem to get buck fever when I get out there and it all goes to hell. My sincerest appreciation to both of you. I was gonna start trying the crocodile dundee dynamite technique if all else fails..lol!

    Hey that's cool sk8man...I appreciate the insight. Luckily I know enough about my lake to know where to keep looking...unfortunately this waste of time "work" keeps getting in my way. The perch that we have caught have puked up crayfish...that was just north of rock island on the flats at 25ft. I've heard from guys at the launch that they were catching 30-50 around one of the places I previously mentioned and I've been out there after work, I just keep my distance out of respect because they are always fishing it by the time I get out. I'm sure is a weed line or some structure that's holding them there, but I don't know what they are hitting them on...I'm assuming fatheads off the bottom. Persistence and knowledge will eventually pay off...I'll get on em sooner or later. Thanks bud!

    Hello everyone, new to the group but I've grown up on canandaigua lake mostly skiing and wakeboarding...my lady and I have recently got into the lake fishing and managed to put together a 17 footer with equipment. We've been out quite a few times in about 25ft of water at the north end and west side before the pumphouse looking for schools on the fish finder and using fathead off the bottom and jigging with no luck. I'm wondering if it's slow going for everyone?
