Odd they are that deep already is it not?

I believe the perch stays deep in the winter till water warms up than goes shallow to spawn
Temps yesterday was at 42 F we were getting them in 53'
I think when temperatures reach 48 F they will start to move up shallow water
They were a lot of fish marked yesterday but the bite was very soft and sporadic

It's early still. They haven't come in yet. If you have a boat, you should be able to go out and find a school or two between 25-55 ft this time of year before all the walleye show up (so I'm told) but that doesn't mean they'll bite if you do find'em.

Fishing off the pier in Pt Bruce I didn't catch one worth keeping until May 24th last year (the actual day not the assumed long weekend) It's generally late May into June before they come shallow in any numbers and size, and even then it's sporadic, but mid June into July is usually pretty good off the pier but ya gotta be there when they are.

Lots of times over the past couple years I've gotten there early in the morning and some of the other "regulars" haven't gotten much, if anything, and they've given up and left. Couple hours later, it's not quite non stop like it used to be, but it's steady enough to keep you there. Many times the phrase "you should have been here yesterday," has had many on the pier pulling their hair out especially if you missed it yesterday. It's a wonder we're not all bald.

Good luck when you get out @Alby
Word of advice just because there is a bunch of boats in a spot it don't mean they are on fish
I see that a lot of times ,but I do find them not far off the pack
If winds are good I may see you out there ?

No point Abino

Thanks!
