Start shallow in spring: european perch sit in 1 to 3.5 m that time of year. Summer pushes them deeper, 1 to 4.5 m, and winter fish settle into 1.5 to 4.5 m. Warm-month bites cluster around early morning. Throw a drop-shot micro plastics or a small crankbait (perch pattern) until the fish tell you otherwise.
