This is one of my old stomping grounds well before they did all this work to the dam. We used to have great fun catching minnows and using them as live bait for Perch. A single sharp hook just behind the head and cast near a fallen tree or whatever. We had some great results and there are some really big buggers out there.
was fishing around balingup today and picked up a couple of redfin on a halco scorpion in the brown trout pattern. The redfin do like those lures if you present them the right way.

When you go fishing and you catch something, that's good. If you're making love and you catch something, that's bad.
