: : About 2 wks ago, I fished the open water at the harbor's entrance and got no bites. I then ice-fished inside the harbor and caught a few. There's perch in all the harbors, but most are only 3-6".
: Thanks Ron Think I'll check it out this weekend. Were you on the bottom? Whats the best bait?

I was fishing near the bottom. (See my post: "Re:Navy Pier 1/29/99") Maggots will work this time of year, but small minnows seem to attract the larger perch better.
