As I mentioned in my report for Wednesday, my plan was to see if I could catch some perch at Moses Lake. My friend James Lebow had mentioned that he saw some boats on the lake just above the I-90 Bridge, and there are people fishing off the bridge, too. That’s all I needed to hear. I picked James up at his place at 9 and we drove to Blue Heron Park. It’s a short walk from the parking area to where we like to fish from the rip rap. I want to mention that walking on the broken concrete and large rocks can be a challenge, so be careful and take your time. We were fishing with a weight on the end of our line and a hook about three feet above that, baited with a chunk of nightcrawler. We were getting bites constantly. Although I was using a size 6 hook to keep the small perch off I managed to hook some 3-inchers. Most of our perch were 8 to 10 inchers, and we had three that were over 11 inches. We fished till just before noon and had 23 perch in the bucket. It was really fun!
