Catching perch in backwaters. It was very important to find areas with current. I used a jigging spoon tipped with a minnow head to catch the perch.

Water temp is mid to upper 50's in closed off shallow bays. Fish are on wood and old grass. Swim Jigging and Flipping seemed to be the deal for me. The fish are very aggressive and will let you know when you are around them.

Water temp. was in the lower 50s in the backs of spawning pockets. Caught plenty of males on laydowns. In particular the ones that stretched out into the deeper water.

Focused on a staging area leading to a large backwater in 5-6 foot of water. Water has good clarity and was 52 degrees, the main cover was chunk rock and laydowns. Fishing overall was tough but we ground out a nice limit to get 2nd in our first club tournament of the year.
