Welcome to the forums! Usually where you catch lots of Perch you can catch some walleye or pike in the area! (Just a matter of timing in the day and season!) I'm surprised you haven't caught any bass either! I'm not sure where you fish or what you use but if PM me I don't mind sharing some tips!

Good to know, nice tip! Thanks for this @thetalloutdoorsman. I will take you up on it

I recently got to go up to Stony Lake for my second fish on a real lake and landed a good variety of fish inc., SM/LM Bass. Very cool! See here: http://www.ontariofi...to-stony-lake/�

Just at Island Lake this weekend visiting some family in Orangeville. Water has retreated so much from what i'm used to. Definitely bring or rent a boat/kayak and head out into the more open water if you're interesting in going. Tons of vegetation as @fisherman2280 said making if difficult to fish the shore.

Brought the rods regardless but didn't end up wetting the line. Maybe next season. 

20' deep, wow! Sounds fun.

Try stirring them up a bit. Depending on the vegetation growth this late in the summer tie on on a Bandit 100 series (2-5' crank depth). If the veg is not so bad then up your crank game to a 200 series (4-8' crank depth). I have confidence in my 1/4oz Big O at landing Bass which is equivalent to the Bandit 100.

Bring the noize! Fish on. 

If you go the slip bobber route it's not a bad idea to grab ones that have a brass grommet in the top, like the thill pro series, so your line doesn't chew through the plastic over time

I just fished a 3" Senko style worm texas rigged weedless and weighted, with a 1/0 EWG hook and that landed me a decent sized Perch. Was looking for Bass but i wasn't complaining. I just threw it into the weeds and let it sink, pulled it up a couple feet and let it sink, rinse and repeat. 

If Bass Pro sells the ones you just got look it up and check the Question/Answers section. More often than not either a BP rep or another individual will have already mentioned what size/type hook to use. 

Tight lines.
