Fishing Information
Fishing White Birch Haven
Common
Name: Yellow Perch
Scientific Name: Esox Masquinongy
Family:
Esocidae
Identification:
Silvery background with dark, variable
markings, often as oblique stripes, spots, or
blotches, or even with scarcely any markings.
Belly white with small spots. Fins green to
red-brown with dark blotches. Young (less than
150 ram) with broad scalloped bars of olive

Fishing Methods:
The natural home for the musky is in the
northern lakes and rivers. It is a solitary fish
and lurks in weed beds or other protective
cover. Anglers usually have the best luck
fishing during the daytime. Large plugs, spoons,
and bucktails are the best artificial baits. A
live fish bait 10-12 inches long is also good.
