12 year old first time fisherman
Hey, my name is Christian and i am 12 years old, i have just got a pole and gone out a little but had no luck. Do you have any tips for fishing in lake washington especially perch? Thank you
Re: 12 year old first time fisherman
I was fishing off of log boom park 3 days ago and caught a couple of perch with a peice of night crawler by jigging it and then letting it drop and sit and repeating that.
Re: 12 year old first time fisherman
Nightcrawlers on a small hook will do the trick. Use a small bobber and fish it near the bottom.

Re: 12 year old first time fisherman
Welcome! If you live anywhere near Gene Coulon Park. Fish next to the ivars. The perch are there now. The recommendation of worms and small hooks is perfect. I took a few seniors there not too long ago and they did fine. I just haven't had a chance to post a report on it. Good luck!
Re: 12 year old first time fisherman
google drop shot rigs, use a number 4 hook and live nightcrawlers. Good luck.
