gobies are becoming a real pain in the butt.......looked for some perch myself this morning......a half dozen for dinner was all I could find........just food for thought, gobies hit crabs, minnows and worms.......only gonna get worse I'm afraid.......hit a spot out on the shoals that was loaded with 5" - 8" eyes...had to move ......gobies were mixed in with them too.......crazy stuff.......saw some huge balls of shad also
Good info jperch. Gobies favorite food is mussels. So any rocky or pancake bottom is probably where the gobies will be because that is where the mussels are.From mcully's report they are even hitting jigging raps? Definitely might need to up size the bait a bit this winter.It will all work itself out. Hopefully it will help get the perch numbers back up where they used to be.
Bruce, I heard they feed pretty heavily on fish eggs. Any truth to this?
