Where I live.

Perch are great eating and Pike are great fighters.

My daughter owns the family cottage, we have those, musky and bass as well.

Perch are great eating and Pike are great fighters.

With ultralight gear, both are great fighters.

Ever seen one of those diawa mini rigs, the one that only takes like 4-6 lb test line?

I think mine is still in the basement of the cottage, with one of those, even a bluegill seems like a big pike.

With all the google earth going on, try "Waneta Lake" in New York

I have seen a lot of small ones, but the one I use for perch uses a 0.20 mm line (we usually go by diameter rather than strength), about twice as strong as that line.
