Perch Rivaled the Croaker in Size

Type: Tidal
Region: Southern
Location: Wicomico River Tributary

Fished a Wicomico River Tributary around 6:00 am on 7/7/2015 form the shore. Used a short spreader rig with hooks attached directly to the wire arms, no mono. Perch were gathered along a retaining wall and all that was needed was a simple drop and a jig instead of casting. Many of the jumbo perch that were caught were larger than the croaker. Largest perch was 12 inches. Also caught one spot. Fresh blood worm was used for bait.
