Can aggressive jigging call perch in from a distance?
Yes — and then it should stop. Big lifts, bottom thumps, and rattle spoons push displacement the lateral line reads from meters away, which is how one hole "turns on" after a minute of loud jigging. But the perch's final approach is a close-range visual and taste inspection, and a bait still leaping around gets pecked at and refused. The working rhythm is loud to call, quiet to close: rip to attract, then hold the bait nearly still just off bottom and let the tap-tap develop.
