This was my first time catching a perch and eating it too.

      I’m fairly new to fishing and I’ve been mostly targeting trout with lures, so I’m trying to pick up tips, so thank you! I got a medium power and action rod as a hand-me-down that I was thinking of setting up for targeting bigger fish, can ya tell me how you’re targeting perch? Like where to look and so on?

        Hi, I’m new too and I don’t know much about the language or technicality of it. I got this perch in a small lake/pond off the shore, using a bobber and putting the shrimp down about 2.5 feet, with a medium sized hook around 7 pm. I was more trying to get a catfish, I didn’t even know there was perch in this lake.
