Were you using a swivel when you'd get bites and not get a hookup? Perch and crappie hit my swivel more than they hit my lure. If I am night fishing, I tie directly to the line, otherwise I use a blood knot for my fluorocarbon leader. Try sight fishing for perch in shallow, clear water some time...they'll hit a swivel more than they hit a lure.
