11/6/2019 10:03:50 AMLoved the video! Looks like you have a good sized pc of perch meat on there. Try a smaller pc with a crappie jig, fished with a dropshot it works pretty stellar and might be easier to hook up.

The drop shot lets you impart more action without moving the bait as much. Perch in the winter seem to have more of a reaction bite. So small quick movements tricks em. Good luck out there

Of course American is a large lake and I might have gone to the wrong end. I think I saw one trout. I have given up on kokanee in Pierce County except for Alder Lake. The last 2 years I haven't fished too much because of health. This year has been a bit better.
