    I finally had a break from the whitefish and after seeing a few buddies posting photos of giant perch, I decided to hit an old stomping ground to see if the fish had moved in yet. It was a slower bite, but the quality was there. Here's how we do it.

      SR Fishing would you not recommend fishing cooks bay if your after jumbo perch?

    • @SteveRowbothamfishing
      @SteveRowbothamfishing  Před rokem

      @christianb8228 still lots of jumbos in cooks bay. You just have to move when you find small fish. Bigger ones tend to stick together.

    • @SteveRowbothamfishing
      @SteveRowbothamfishing  Před 5 lety

      Medium or medium light aetos. The meegs has its place for sure, but I'll hit bottom, then do a slow lift same as the plastics

    Great video dude. We fished cooks before on atvs and dropped the camera down to see if we could find transitions on the flats. Any idea on how far out from shore we would have to be to see these transitions?

    • @SteveRowbothamfishing
      @SteveRowbothamfishing  Před 4 lety

      It depends on the area you're in. A lot of times the transitions aren't necessarily on the contours you will find on a map. We know them from a lot of time sidescanning.

    SR - the Halo bait you mention, is this a "vibra-tail" style (eg Billy Bay)?

    • @fatalforceoutfitters
      @fatalforceoutfitters Před 5 lety +1

      The Halo is a bait I made for targeting whities and lakers. It apparently does well for the perch I see. Good job Steve👌

    • @SteveRowbothamfishing
      @SteveRowbothamfishing  Před 4 lety

      It's a very small bait that Tom designed. It's ugly as sin and if you saw it on a shelf, you probably wouldnt buy it, though you would be missing out

    Solid perch day. I’m out by cooks and it’s constant dink’s. You mentioned you use side imaging to find sand flats. Without side imaging, do you have tips to find flats? Tough for me to move around a lot being sledless and using a hand auger. I’m thinking I need to become more mobile.

    • @polarisoutdoors3105
      @polarisoutdoors3105 Před 4 lety +1

      It's all flats dude. We run atvs and underwater camera. Yet to find predominate structures or defined drop offs

    • @SteveRowbothamfishing
      @SteveRowbothamfishing  Před 4 lety

      hard to find the absolute sweet spots without good electronics or cameras. They will roam the entire flat, but the sweet spots obviously tend to see more fish

    My fiance and I are planning a trip up north for Valentine's weekend. We would love to bring some perch home from our trip. really don't want to sort through the dinks at Cook's Bay any suggestions as to where to start? Have never fished Simcoe before. And we are just hoping for a good memorable trip, as we are coming from six and a half hours away in Ohio.

    • @SteveRowbothamfishing
      @SteveRowbothamfishing  Před 4 lety +1

      there are a number of good locations to target bigger fish. Deeper water in Cook's often holds better fish and sand flats in 15-40 ft further north and east on the lake hold schools of good fish.
