    It may seem odd but my best childhood memories revolved around perch our family and friends would come to our cottage for a feed of perch we all were involved young and old to catching cleaning and cooking and never took more than we needed ❤

    The wonderful thing about the Great Lakes is you can feed the fish without any worry of sharks getting interested.

    You won me over!! Wrecks are one thing, but what lives in the lakes is so much more interesting and precious!

    • @PolkaDotPerch
      @PolkaDotPerch  3 года назад +1

      Great to hear we've got another convert!
      We honestly think the dive industry short-changed the Great Lakes by marketing it only as a wreck destination. As you say, wrecks are interesting but a PADI survey showed that the number one reason most divers jump is for the opportunity to see living things!!

    I've always done this in the Mediterranean! Always carry two or three cans of sardines plus old bread in a plastic bag: crack open the cans in the bag: the juice and oil mix with the chunks of bread and you've got a feeding frenzy after 10 mintes. Just like you explain, if you go back to the same place (even after only one day ) they are waiting for you: the fury is awesome to witness!

    Wow! That is awesome. I'm a Fisherman and my cousin is too. But he also is a Scuba Diver.
    Now I need to tell him about feeding fish. I think he will just love the idea of feeding fish.

    • @PolkaDotPerch

      It's one of our favorite things to do underwater! Hope your cousin gives it a try!

    I heard bass were really friendly and they will follow you around and claim you, fighting off other bass

    • @PolkaDotPerch
      @PolkaDotPerch  3 месяца назад +1

      It's true that they follow us around! I like to think it's cuz they enjoy our company but really it's because we kick over rocks and other stuff and they are hoping a crayfish or goby will pop out!! Friends with benefits?!

      Yep, this site is very close to where the round goby was first "introduced" ie dumped out of a freighter!

    Hello! Where exactly in the river are you feeding them?

    • @PolkaDotPerch
      @PolkaDotPerch  3 года назад

      @Lydia Leigh there is no "magic" spot. Just pick someplace that's easily accessible for you. The more you visit the more fish you will see.

    How can a perch that small possibly break someones line? He must've took them into a snag

    Why don't you try netting the fish with the hook in it

    • @PolkaDotPerch
      @PolkaDotPerch  3 года назад +2

      We do try to remove hooks from fish whenever possible. Of course when they have issues they tend to be more skittish. Sadly, Fred wasn't able to catch this one to help it out. Thanks for watching and commenting!
