smerchly Posted September 15, 2011 Report Share Posted September 15, 2011 I went to the west pier about 9 am and it was blowing up some big waves , splashing over the pier so I went to the east side and the rollers were 6 footers and also very windy with muddy water on the lake side . I made a few doz. casts ,for notta , then grabbed a couple doz.minnows , getting a few perch , one being about 11" . I'll give a few day before another try after a few colder nights , they should start hitting . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
