The first trip does not need a giant tackle plan with a short rotation through shoreline cover, weed edges, and the first clean drop away from the bank because the water itself will tell you more than a long list of generic fishing tips.
Recorded species at Perch Lake include Black Crappie, Bluegill, Largemouth Bass, Pumpkinseed, and Yellow Perch; so I would pack with weeds, wood, rock, or docks for bass and weeds and easy cover for panfish, and remember that a species list does not tell you exactly where the fish are.
If I had a few hours to figure out Perch Lake, I would choose a few spots that look different from one another and give each one a fair chance, and I would check the current regulations because a lake page and a regulation book do two different jobs.
