Yellow perch eggs from a distance will resemble toilet paper in the water. They can be clumped or draped, ribbon like-elongate based on how they were deposited. Often they will be pulled off the structure where they are laid when the egg strand was not well intertwined with the structure. I have seen perch lay eggs on a bare bottom and then they lie in a clump but when distrubed will look like a round elongted ribbon. If eggs are in a tight jelly like mass they are usually amphibian. Perch eggs are not adhesive - sticky to the branch or weeds.
