I had just a few hours this morning to chase perch north of Kipling.  I had to go through small fish for each keeper I caught.  The day was surprising in one sense:  the perch showed a strong preference for one lure over all others.  This was the small size Genz Worm, which is like a small, heavy jig that hangs horizontally in the water.  The color was glow blue which actually looks like a white body with blue eyes.  It was tipped with spikes.  I tried a dozen other proven presentations at the same time and watched on camera as perch swarmed the Genz Worm each time it was used while swimming past the other lures.  I have seldom seen such a strong preference.  Even the smallest size Jigging Rap was ignored and it also hangs horizontally.   Go figure!  It shows the importance of being versatile and trying different presentations.
