Laker...Just a reminder...this coming Saturday they will be having that annual perch jerker tournament on Fayette where each entry has a 100 fish bag limit. I probably won't be going back there til the fall, but will be very interested on hearing how you do...

Laker...I agree...I had an argument with the Game Warden a while back when he told me it wouldn't really hurt the overall bluegill population...

Laker...I agree...I had an argument with the Game Warden a while back when he told me it wouldn't really hurt the overall bluegill population... Wounder how far back that tournament has been going on? If it has been an yearly event that has been occurring over a lot of years it's evident that this has not hurt the sunfish population. Fayette is an ideal sunfish lake with ideal conditions. Sunfish usually have three spawning cycles a year and they really multiply. Guess a once a year tournament would not hurt that lake. Like you I have done really well the times I have fished Fayette. I will also wait until early September before fishing it again. I usually fish Fayette twice a year. Side Note: Have already changed my plans!

Laker...The game warden said it is an annual event for a big fish fry that benefits a good cause, but did not say how many years it has been goin on. BTW...Two of the fish I cleaned actually had eggs inside...couldn't believe it...I thought the spawn was done a month & a half ago. So where ya headin to instead of Fayette ? We really lucked out with the weather yesterday...not really hot a all...
