Perch in Irondequoit Bay

Any of you guys getting female perch? The 20 I cleaned yesterday were 99% males. I cleaned 18 the other day that were 99% males also. I notcied this pattern last year at the beginning of the run that it was mostly males.

Looking to get out this week on the bay. Will I have trouble launching a 18 ft starcraft? I have a Ford suv with no 4 wheel drive. Generally I have not had problems. TY Doug

Suggest you bring your chest or at least hip waders. You will be surprised how fast you run out of ramp when you are backing in now. Assume you are going to be fine. Have a spotter watch your axle carefully. You may need to get out and shove the longer boats in and also may need to get in and help guide the bow up and on to your trailer when hauling out.

You'll be OK if you are prepared and resourceful. Just don't come expecting for sure that you are going to just slide your boat in. These conditions are managable, but they are tricky.

Stay Sharp, Be Safe

One dock is still in, you should have no trouble, just don't go off the end of the ramp. We used the ramp toward the bridge. Fishing was ok, but we didn't stay in one place long lots of small perch and bluegills. We did bring home 24 keepers. GL Doug

Got to the outlet late and only fished a couple of hours from about 10 til 12. From past experience they slow down at about 10 or 11. I did manage 25 keepers from 8.5 to 11"and about 50 gobies.If you fished earlier or later I think it would be pretty good.
