Just One Perch Lure

jiggin rap with a minnow head on the treble hook.

Size 04 rippin rap for active jumbos. Lindy ice worm jighead with a pinhead or small plastic if inactive, they get to the bottom pretty quickly for a micro jig which can be the difference maker for keeping a cruising school underneath your hole

1. Slab Grabber and 2. Minnow with a split shot dropper set about a foot off bottom

Here is a good video about how to fish a slabgrabber

I WILL BE TRYING OUT THE SLABGRABER THIS WEEKEND

Last year I picked up some slab grabbers. If it warms up a bit this weekend I am planning on going perch fishing. Do you guys bait the slab grabbers with a minnow head or a worm?

No don’t tip them it just hides the bead which is the target for the fish. It can also mess with the action of the lure and be sure to put it on a swivel.

For me, Ive have a lure that resembles a perch talker,, that's my go to.

on a second line its a single hook tipped with a minnow or a White Berkley maggot

Moonman, this is exactly my set up, we fish the 24-30 fow as well, slab grabbers work but i find i get more 13"+ jumbos on the jigging raps and the buckshots with a rattle.

2. jigging rap tipped with jensen egg on the treble hook.

p.s. i fish shallow 10-12 fow

Small williams jigging spoon also hooks into occasional whitefish and pike while perching.

I use plain mono on the reel and rod with large eyelets. Braid just ices up and tangles for me when ice fishing...

Geez what a great bunch of guys on here Thanks for all your tips, I appreciate all the help you give me and fellow members.

Cheers,
