... with their "Green Perch". Yeah, that one threw me for a loop the first time I heard that. I watch a lot of fishing videos, and a lot of Texans refer to Bluegills and other panfish as Perch. My OCD can only handle so much! Thanks Theo, now you got me all fired up for the day

Is a green perch the same thing as a ditch pickle? Do you watch Kayak Catfish on Youtube? That's what he calls a LMB (Ditch Pickle). I thought Green Perch was anything in the Bluegill family, but I could be wrong. I've read that people in Mississippi call LMB "Green Trout" lol. Edit: Nope, apparently the term Ditch Pickle was coined in 2010 when a fly-fishing tournament in Vermont was called the Ditch Pickle Classic.

Haven't heard of Kayak Catfish. I'd say the term ditch pickle has probably been in use since about forever, but the first guy to write it on the interwebs gets the credit. lol
If you're ever feeling ornery, drop that phrase in a conversation with a tournament angler, and tell him how good they are to eat. ;-)

Maybe we can do some Cajun bashing too..... If you knock the food, I'll come to Pittsburgh and kick your butt.
