a surprise from a perch, puked this up

Perch fishing out of Beaverton today and one puked this ugly rig up never seen one in real life anyone else finding perch with gobies?

oh ya lots of them

Sashimi or smoked???

It's illegal to use gobies as bait.

???? I don't think anywhere on the post here mentioned using them as bait. But thank you for the random reminder.

Maybe why the lack of big jumbos being caught, there feasting on gobies...!

Incredible how fast these gobies reproduce...hope everything is feasting on them,if not we're in trouble..

Will see if some kind of balance comes out of this eventually...I don't eat much perch,but does anyone know if the taste is being altered at all over the last few years ? Just curious

a lot of them and also gobie eggs too

It definetly wasn't bait just got spit out in the hut by a perch my buddy caught, it was still alive even when it first came out so must have been a gobie dinner with a minnow chaser......but somebody spiked the minnow

Today one of the dink perch I had caught had tails in its mouth other than the pin head I was using. I pulled out two small perch. They hadn't gone past the mouth when attacked my bait!
