New State Record Perch???

[walleye69]

Heard today that supposedly someone caught a 2lb 12oz perch on Bitter over the weekend beating the old record of 2lb 9oz. Is this true or just a rumor? If true does anyone know who it was?

[bobber_down]

True story... I don't know who the guy was but I think he weighed it in at the Cowboy in Watertown.

Hey 69er of the walleye, that was me too!! i forgot to tell ya! No, I heard it was true, but heard today it's B.S. Who the hell knows until we get the good word from the officials. I heard it was a man that goes by the name of Dave Engels. If it is true thats a helluva perch.

Walleye69, ive heard rumors of a good walleye bite on pelican, im gonna check it out in the morning, let ya know how it goes!

[walleye69]

I found out today that its true. Got a pic of the pig today. Some guy from Watertown caught it. If there was a way to attatch pics I would let u all see it.

Hey Sloughy. I will be back this weekend for sure. Let me know how Pelican goes. Thought about maybe trying Bitter on Sat for some eyes. Thought about maybe trying to catch some sharks too, but it might be a little early for that.

Where did you see the picture, I'd like to see that little sowbelly....

69er of the walleye, Pelican didnt happen, too many Miller Lites fell into my tummy last night, gonna not drink so heavily and give her hell in the morning. Dont waste your time on Bitter, Go take your limit out of waubay like everyone and their mother in law is doing. Sharks are vey mysterious creatures they could be looking for a warm shallow bay, but its hard to tell. I gotta dart tourney on saturday so my fishing on saturday is a goner. Hopefully sunday i can go punish some more fat sows. Bring the Berg with ya, heard a some reports of a few sky carp in the area.

also thinking of coming out to your neck of the woods the weekend of 12,13,&14. would that be a good time to do some dead baitin' for monster sloughsharks??

[walleye69]

Crappie jigga, I got the pic from a buddy of mine from watertown in an e-mail. If you want to see it let me know your e-mail address and I will send it to ya.

Sloughy, I'm not for sure yet where i'm gonna fish on Sat yet. Gonna give Paulie a call tonite and see if he's got any hot spots. If all else fails i'll go to Waubay and practice a little catch and release on some of those fattie yellow bellies and some of those skinny 15" eyes. As far as the monster sharks out here, it all depends on the weather. It was starting to open up pretty good, but now its been chilly again the last few days. The best days for the giants are the warm calm sunny days in the back bays. The spot I fished last year is open, so I am just waiting for the weather to warm up a bit to try it. Its supposed to be in the 50's next week so that should get them going. Let me know if you hear anything before Sat.

love maker to the walleye, I dont want a pic, cuz im gonna catch a bigger one soon.

Hit Pelican up this morning caught only one eye, bout 12 inches and lost one that felt like a pretty good fish. Talked to a dude that was out there last night at sundown and did well, caught three between 17'' and 22'', and missed two others. Looks like it must be strictly a night bite, because with my angling skills, if some fart bag can snag three, I would have certainly been rippin' lotsa lips!

Flag up!
Im gone

I heard GFP say today that the paper work for this new state record has't reached Pierre yet, and he also siad that a larger one could come outof Bitter too, boys that could be 3#.

[walleye69]

Reel Inn. I totally agree. THe record had been flirted with many times this winter with fish from Bitter. Heard of many in that 2-2 1/2 pound range. Its just a matter of time before that 3 pound mark is reached.

Sloughy,

Maybe I will give Pelican a try on Sat night after I rip some lip somewhere during the day. I know theres some fish left out there like the piggies we caught out there last summer.
