Those are some big perch Cecil! Thanks for sharing that... Cecil, do you believe that Mich record perch was really 21"? The record dates from 1947, so I wonder just how accurately it was measured... Some of those older records I get a little iffy about.
Most of my perch fishing is done in tidal waters like the Potomac. The perch are about to start their spawning run. The YP will head up near the fall line and hold in the deeper holes near it just before they start their spawn. You can really get into then... If the commercial fisherman don't get them first!
