Quick update – I heard some rumours about the perch starting up so I made a couple of short exploratory trips out of Sharptown. Two hours fishing yesterday and three hours today yielded a total of twelve keeper perch 8″ to 11″. All males. Water temperature was 47 yesterday and 48 today. Best when it hits 50 and stays there. Early in the season like this, you can get lucky and hit a school going by, filling your cooler in no-time (I didn’t).  While  the big push of perch is not here just yet, it should break wide open any day now. Next week should be good. I’ll be fishing the Pocomoke tomorrow so I hope to have some fish pics to publish. Keeping my fingers crossed!
