    Does Devils Lake perch bite get hot in Feb-Mar or is it a steady bit throughout the ice season? Thinking of making a trip one of these weekends. Haven’t heard a lot of chatter; time to ask the experts (that’s you guys)

    Thanks

    The bite on Devils Lake is usually hot the entire season. The difference is they move deep in the mid season (jan-feb) Come March they tend to move a little shallower. When I say deep i mean it can range from 30-50 fow. March is usually a good time for perch as the become more and more aggressive. The walleye bite is usually red hot as well in March. If you are going to target perch all I can say is be ready to drill and move to find them but once found. It is a BLAST. Dont be afraid to try right in the flooded timber in March. I have had really good luck fishing flooded timber in March.
