any-one catching any perch in crowley yet. going on the 17th and want some perch. Like to catch trout too, but love to eat the perch.
Also what are good lures for trolling for trout, brown and rainbows?

Sorry I dont have any info for you but I am also interested in trying for some perch on my trip on the 18th. Anybody have any idea how to fish for these perch? They look like crappie, are they fished for in the same manner? Same habitat? If the trout dont like me it would be nice to have something to fall back on.
Thanks guys and gals, Jakalope

fishfinder sounds cool but we will be getting in town too late to fish on the 18th. Then sat we have a free boat rental that came with our room at June lake. We plan to fish Crowley on sunday from our tubes. Thanks for the invite though, and good luck to you. I know I will need some!

The tubers are catching them on midge patterns. Black tiger and red tiger midges.

1/16 ounce yellow crappie jigs are the BEST! We used to absolutely slay 'em with that!

Try fishing the area where the owens river comes into the lake. its really shallow and has lots of wed beds. sometimes you can see the crappie beds in the weds. GL .
