Perch spreaders losing ground to homemade perch ‘rigs’
Published: , in Outdoor News
More than 60 years ago when I began perch fishing with my dad and grandfather, the standard operating procedure was to use a wire spreader with two snelled hooks, each baited with an emerald shiner.
Each arm of the “perch spreader” at that time had a small nickel-finish blade at the end and the pre-tied, long-shank snelled hooks would also usually have a shiny spinner blade and red bead at the eye of the hook as an added attractant.
