Hit Bonney Lake this evening with my son. Tried a couple spots before finding the fish. Anchored up and started fishing while the boy hopped in the lake and swam around the boat. There are so many perch in this lake. I probably caught 40-50 in 2 hours. I was using 2 poles (have the endorsement) and couldn't keep up half the time. My son only fished for a few minutes after he was done swimming and only caught 2. The only down side to the perch in this lake is their size. The biggest ones I caught were 7.5 inches most average around 6. Nice to be able to drive .5 mile and be fishing though.

You want bigger fish? you gotta kill tons of those small ones, or talk wdfw into releasing a few Tigers in there to knock em down..

Don't worry BMGW, I have caught about 200-250 so far this summer and will try to get out a few more times. The family likes to eat em so I keep em.

I keep it simple. Dip em in flour/johnnys seasoning and fry in an inch of oil.
