Got out early-had to put nav lights on-went to 38 fow a little east and nothing. Three boats there and we all left after an hour. Went to first 46 and was a lot better. It was howling for sure but we started catching perch- in little spurts- maybe 10 minutes then nothing. Sorted through smaller perch and a few sheeps and white bass. Took us 8 hours to get 2 decent limits with some big ones. It was just nice to get back on the water again. Not too many out there.
