Also, a slip bobber dressed with a pink, white, or chartreuse jig head tipped with a live minnow can produce nice fish. Perch fishing is best in late afternoon until dusk. Stick to outside weedlines and shallow rocks. Some good locations to find jumbo perch are Grass Island, the Graveyard, and Isle Bay. Offer them a simple jig head tipped with a small minnow, leech or night crawler piece that just covers the hook.
Dickie notes that late afternoon and evening produce the hottest muskie action.
Weed beds and shallow rocks are important for locating active fish. Locations to pan for muskies are Jack s Twin Bay, Wahkon Bay, Islae Bay and Isle Harbor Beach. Entice them with large spinnerbaits, Suicks, Reef Hogs and oversized Rapalas in chartreuse or black and white. For more information, stop in and see Dickie at Dickies Portside Resort. Gregory s Resort Campground located 2 miles south of Garrison on Highway 169 has the launch for great fishing and the resort for relaxing and the campground for the hardy.
