Glad to have you aboard.
But I thought maybe I could give you SC guys a few tips, as I used to have a boat docked on lake wylie. I had a jon boat that was tied off to a pier in catawba creek for a few years. I'd fish the SC side alot as I would fish the big bay on the other side of seven oaks bridge.
I was(and still am) a big fan of eating white perch. A method that I used on wylie is also dynamite on the lake i'm fishing now(lake hickory)
All a fella needs to do is use a kastmaster spoon for weight. Above that spoon, tie 3 or so hooks(i use gold size 4 aberdeen) with surgeons loops. I keep the loops kind of small. Vertically jig this thing and hang on.... Fishing was never slow for me if I used that method. Bait your aberdeen with wigglers or swamp worms.
On top that rig, use a swivel. Best bait for the setup had been red wigglers or louisiana swamp worms, dyed chartreause with a product called worm glow. Since no local shops carried those kinds of worms, I just raised my own. See the live bait section, I just posted a detailed instructional on how to do your own worm beds.

Probably so! White perch is not chicken of the sea, but chicken of the lake.
If I make it out that way i'll have to show you my methods.
I had some chinese guys follow me in their boats around the 7 oaks bridge, asking me "what you using".
Swamp worms/red wigglers+worm glo=instabite most times as soon as it touches the bottom.

I know that wasn't OT following you. Glad you know how to do it, that way we don't have to have Brett teach you what CK taught him. Come on out when you can or tell us when you plan to be down here. We can get a crowd up and go! Welcome to the board!
It'd be great to be back in my old stomping grounds again, would definately like to meet some of you guys and kill as many of those perch as possible. My friend Cecil lived right there on the lake by 7 oaks, off catawba cove dr. I'd like to visit him again and throw a boat in the water. 7 oaks was always good to me, regardless of season!

Welcome aboard The perchkiller. Yes those perch are fun. Great to take kids out. I have had many 100 perch days. I am always looking for more consitency in catching. I am more into the big perch now and less cleaning in quantity. Your tips are always welcome so we can get those young ones interested.
