Like most perch jerkers, I found that if you count on catching the first perch...to get eyes or strips...you sometimes gotta work a while to find that first "donor". So, on any trip...open or hard water...when I am catching perch smaller than I want to keep I keep a few anyway...to cut up for future bait. Then, when I get home I turn them into PPP...processed perch pieces. That way I have prime bait from the first cast or drop.
I am attaching a PDF file I put together on this subject. I might add that if you wanna get fancy, you can use a pair of small scissors to make the tail end of your perch pieces either come to a point...or even cut them into a V so there are two ends to flutter.
And...perch pieces ain't only for perch. I have caught just about every species available in Utah on this stuff.
