Bait for Perch - 11/3/2008 3:06:25 PM

Hello All!

I usually just use perch rigs with minnows which usually produce success but I was wondering if they would bit on other things like jigs or something. Does anyone use jigs or a different artificial bait and have good success for perch? Thanks in advance.

Here is your best bet. Sabiki Glow Fish Skin. Size 6 hook. Pm me and I'll tell you who sells them. The perch boats killed the perch with those this summer.

I've had decent luck with a "crappie magnet" jig topped with a couple maggots.
