Perch are easy to catch, all you have to do is put a bait on a hook

Perch have a reputation for being greedy and you can’t argue with that.

They’re therefore easy to catch and all you have to do is put a bait on a hook and drop it in the water.

In fact, I’ve caught them on a bare hook in the past.

The shoal of small fish were so competitive that they snatched at the hook as I dropped it in the margins where they were.

So far, so good.
