I found great videos on YouTube, regarding filleting a perch. I'm pretty quick now, after doing about 60-70. I did buy a rapella rechargeable, elec filet knife, and it sure makes it quicker. (Amazon) I do end up with a few bones in some of the filets, but less than 25%. Not sure why some have them, and not others. Also, I'd never had fresh perch before. It's now our favorite fish. (Good thing, as I think I may have a few too many in my small pond.)
9 yr old pond, 1 ac, 15' deep. RES, YP, GS, FHM (no longer), HBG (going away), SMB, and HSB (only one seen in 5 yrs) Restocked HSB (2020) Have seen one of these. I think that's about all I should put in my little pond. Otter attack in 2023
