Lake Michigan fisheries staff recently concluded their spring perch sampling and have great results to share.
Catch rates were excellent, and the average size was the best it has ever been! Many perch in the 13 to 15-inch range were observed, and growth rates appear excellent. This sampling was conducted at 30, 45, and 60-foot depths from Gary to Michigan City using bottom-set gill nets.
The perch spawn has wrapped up on Lake Michigan, and the fish are now turning their attention to feeding. This should make for excellent angling opportunities through this month and next!
