Had a great tournament yesterday despite the tough conditions. Charles Hartman "Shag" and Doug Stewart won. Joel and I came in 3rd with a busted trolling motor. It was a challenge with the wind but there were some really good weights brought in. Next one up is Feb.19. it is a trailer tourney based out of the new boat ramp at Hertford NC on the perquimins River.CF

Of course the wind dies down the day after the tournament! How was the perch bite?

We are used to it. It would not be a proper tournament unless the wind was blowing 25 plus. Everything went well and everyone was safe. The perch bite is off at North River this year. There is still perch to be had. We had several weighed in right at a pound. But the numbers are definitely down. We saw that throughout prefishing as well.CF

The bite I've seen in central VA tends to start when SSTs get more towards 55-60 degrees, which we're a good bit away from yet. April the best month for those guys IME

If I still lived in Va I would fish your tournaments

The white perch bite At Eden house bridge starts about May and goes through the summer. They will be up at Winton in April.
