Cool cool. Sounds like Deer Creek is the first place I'll try. If I get skunked there, maybe I'll get a day off of work in advance or something to take a full day trip up to Mantua.
Seems like that was pretty much what I read about the yellow perch in general - they have big boom years, and big bust years. It's hard to get current information on how this year is up there, but I check these forums every day, so I'm sure I won't miss it if someone takes home a bucket of perch from there.
I don't think I want to wait for ice before making my first attempt at panfish out of Deer Creek. I know this isn't exactly optimal time to fish for them, but would it be possible to catch them from shore in cold (but not icy) weather like we're having right now?
