- We believe this might be the biggest perch ever caught on video. Don Cox with a giant Cannibalistic Jumbo Perch on Idaho’s Cascade Lake. Jason Mitchell joins Don Cox, Chris Bressler and friends in pursuit of giant perch that surpass the magical two pound mark.
Snapshot of productive locations and presentations that shined during our February 2020 trip. Definitely a bucket list worthy trip for ice anglers looking to catch the biggest perch of their lives.

Great job guys! Was great to see you out there, a very good job of representing what Cascade is all about...including what are often very challenging conditions! Always worth it tho.
Great to see you as well!
Jason another awesome video,you are a true professional.Thank you from the (605) state.
62 BBQ hope to get to the 605 State soon! Thanks for the view.
U guys didn't fry any up yellow persh is great to eat
Great video & great jumbo Perch!
I didn't hear you say, But what kind of lure were you guys using and what size? Thanks!
Those perch are minnows. They catch 4-7lb perch in Denmark
Good to see that child like laugh again Jason! I enjoy seeing you light up like that as thats what its all about!
🤙
They catch 3 pounders on a regular basis in Lake Gogebic in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan through the ice. But, not a trivial place to fish in the winter!
3 is a bit of a stretch, plenty of 2 pounders around though
Fishing has went down hill there the last 2 years.
awesome job, I really enjoyed watching
👍
To many commercials just a tip
I was just talking to a guide in SD who said throwing back perch that were caught in 25 to 35 feet of water was irresponsible bc their bladders basically exploded. Is that true?
ssdpqd2531 25-30 feet is right on the threshold where you start to see barotrauma. We had a few smaller fish that we reeled up too fast that suffered barotrauma that we kept. We found the fish did much better by simply reeling them up slow.
I catch 15.5" in my local river in NYS regularly.they can barely swim there so full of eggs in winter
Wats better than those waxies...chicken skin. Theyll pik pik pik and you cant lose it.
I have been wanting to get out here so bad for so long!!!!! I just need a sled now and I am going the next chance I get!!!!
DWS Outdoors hope you get out that way! Worth the drive.
I love in West Virginia and the biggest perch I catch is 15inches.
Do you ever keep perch that are in the 1 1/2 pound range or bigger or do you always release them? If you do keep them does that hurt the population?
ssdpqd2531 I released them. I wouldn’t mind mounting a really big fish but I have caught fish like that before and didn’t feel the need to keep any. Cascade is somewhat unique because these fish seem to live longer and are older than perch on lakes we fish in the Dakotas. We kept a few smaller fish to eat one evening and a few anglers kept a few fish for the taxidermist. In regards to hurting the population, that can really depend on a lot of factors but we like to use some self restraint.
Thanks for getting back to me. Really appreciate it.
And the world and state record are 2.9lbs
Your perch are very pretty over there. Very tiny too though 🤣.
How long did it take to get unstuck? Still worth it I'm sure. Pure joy laugh.
We were down for about half the day.😀
They sure are awesome fish! Crazy I'm not going back, but guess I got to give it a break this year. The last four years have been fun! Perch eyes are great bait! Fish after fish!
Are the fish illegal to keep or what....😮
Now that I see this was posted 4 days ago I was out on the lake with you guys more likely lol
Zack Babneau 👍
All fish can be cannibalistic. Whether western states or anywhere else. This is not unique.
Wowww..great...NIce video..Beautiful place..i like that...👍
Look for video of perch fishing in Holland……7lb perch…no kidding.
Awesome video! We recently wen ice fishing on a golf course and killed it! Check out our channel if you get a chance!
Awesome job!
you should have to keep the fish if you take its eye for bait
People generally do keep the fish when they use a perch eye.
What kind of line do you prefer and why?
I personally like to use a lot of braid or super line when I am jigging. I like the no stretch, durability and toughness. Some people think it freezes up but it is easier to slide the ice off the line than mono and it is much tougher. Often use a fluorocarbon leader. Using six pound Frost Braid.
@@JasonMitchellOutdoors What are your thoughts on the frost line
I use the braid for jigging Walleye and crappie/ perch and love it. Often use the hi vis. Use the 2-3 lb fluorocarbon and mono a lot for panfish. Best overall line I have used for ice fishing with the diameters and performance.
Wow what a world class fishery Jason. I too am a huge fan of chubby darters. Do you ever use the Fastach clips off the bottom to help hold baits better. Tnx again for the killer video brother
ThankfulLife I have on the bottom treble for hooking up minnow heads by running the shaft of the hook through the mouth.
Was looking forward to this episode - looks wild! It’s now on my list for next ice season. 🙌
For sure! We will be going back. Thanks for watching.
I wonder why the Perch grow so large in that lake? At first I was tempted to think it was an European variety, but it isn't.
👍
I'm 99% certain that there's world record perch in Okanagan Lake, BC. I've caught several over 3lb.
Dan 😳
what model of dewalt drill do you use?? Does it stand up good???
Live not love
Thanks for sharing Sir. That slush is a bear! Last year we had the same problem with it. I have a quick question for you please. Did you notice that the fish were primarily feeding on bloodworms or minnows this season? Last year they spit worms and the year before were minnows. Thanks again!
Prospector we saw fish coughing up bloodworms especially the smaller fish but it seemed like the big fish were eating other fish and riding much higher off the bottom.
@@JasonMitchellOutdoors main forage of the ,larger perch in Cascade - is small perch
That was a great video guys! Loved it. Lived Cascade through you guys this year.
The Fishing Doctors Adventures thanks for watching! We had to live through you before!
Well thanks, if you did previously it is an honor for me I must say. Glad you went and checked it out. Really special place the last several years.
Too many adds
What's the limit on perch there?
There is actually no limit on the perch in Idaho but with trophy class fish like this, we didn’t make a point of keeping fish and don’t want to abuse the fishery.
@@JasonMitchellOutdoors thats bad ass tho hopefully people respect and don't over fish with them kinda jumbos
I live in Donnelly and cascade lake is amazing ice fishing but I didn't know it was known about a few states over
Zack Babneau awesome fishery!
Gentlemen
Great trip, great video, thank you for all the information. I would like to ask one question, what kind of a fishing rod is Jason using?
Thank you.
JM Dead Meat series
Awesome scenery, great to see the JMO we normally don't get to see! Terrific job by your videography team as well. Thanks!
Christopher Cable-Cheval thanks for watching. We appreciate you.
What’s the best time to go for these perch? Also is the lake drivable for trucks?
Sounds like they have ice between January and early March most years. The lake wasn’t close to be drivable for trucks when we were there and a snowmobile was needed because of the slush.
I'm in the process of planning my trip there for next year! Cannot wait! Great video Jason!
Water and Ice Outdoors good luck!
Wow!!! You know your onto something special when a perch won't go down a 6 inch hole.
👌
Super video, looks like a great time fishing! I noticed you were using a swivel and was wondering how and why to do that. Thank you and happy fishing!
I use a small swivel to attach a fluorocarbon leader to the braid and also reduce some twist on the line from aggressively working spoons or swim lures.
Perch eye is where it's at!!
Awesome video, tuff season here in Michigan, sketchy ice has really limited our opportunities.
Stay Safe🤙
Impossible to watch with all the ads
I’m from ND
Tanker Perch! Holy moly!
Wow those are some Jumbos! Excellent video!
Skunked Outdoors 👍
Cool episode!!
what rods are you using?
I was using a 32 inch JM Dead Meat
How do you pick the spot where to fish?
We drill a lot of holes and fished a lot of different kinds of spots until we put a general pattern together. We tried shallow points and didn’t seem much. Tried the old river channel and caught smaller fish. We had our best luck on deep points in 22-35 feet. We pick a lot of wrong spots until we figure things out. Be persistent.
Jason Mitchell Outdoors thank you
Awesome! What was the biggest one you caught?
Personally, right at 2 but biggest for group was 2.6
That's a football! What was the length?
Up North Outdoors 15.5 inches
Where on the lake were you?
@skankhunt42 ah ok
We went out of Poison Creek for the most part.
The Cascade Chamber thanks you for a very well done video on Lake Cascade. Let us know when you make it back next year, we are sure this is not a one time only trip for all of you now. You are sporting that famous perch smile! We are glad you had a great time!!
We will definitely reach out!
Hate to burst your bubble, but channel Carl and Alex catch 7 pound ones overseas
think you could put some more ads in the video? i really love 20 minutes of ads instead of the 15 you guys did
Austin Kramer don’t watch the Super Bowl😀
@@JasonMitchellOutdoors they kneel, us fisherman stand !!
I seen them catch 7 lb ones in netherlands,so your 1 lb means nothing, change the title,fools
Ever think that maybe European perch and North American perch are two different species? Two pounds is a big perch in NA, 2.6 is a monster. Like comparing walleye to Zander.
@bryan wow you dumb...
I talked to Idaho fish n game today it is ILLEGAL to use any game fish for bait ...perch is a game fish ...perch eyes are illegal...READ THE PROCLAMATION FOLKS !!! CALL THE IDFG !!!
wilson read the proclamation and enlighten us. Live minnows, frogs and crayfish are illegal unless the crayfish is caught from that water. Using a live gamefish would be illegal. Using a frozen or dead Cisco to catch pike or lake trout for example would be legal.
Wilson, I bet you're fun at parties.
@Wilson haha you salty
perch is NOT a gamefish...There is no limit on perch in Lake Cascade
You read the proclamation, you are incorrect! The use of perch eyes are totally Legal..
Norway they catch them over 7lb
Wrong...The world record yellow perch (18 in (46 cm); 4 lb 3 oz (1.9 kg)) was caught in May 1865 in Bordentown, New Jersey by Dr. C. Abbot.
I caught a 4 lb perch in cooper as a kid it was the mid 80s
