Cutler Reservoir Wasted Perch

[bblake98]

Man if they found that many perch in Cutler, I want to follow them around... I've finally got my first hit for the year in Cutler, but I let the crappie get away... 1 for 18 trips this year... 

I suspect they (wasted perch) came from somewhere else, like probably Hyrum, they are too big for Newton... Too bad they were wasted, folks should let them go if they aren't going to use them...  Bryton you're one of the few folks I know that has caught perch out of Cutler proper... I got one once out of a side slough, but they are hard to find in Cutler... hope these weren't caught there and wasted, that's probably the whole school in the pond... I think the perch are as rare as the trout in Cutler, both have been caught, but not very often... Later Jeff

Jeff, they definitely look like Hyrum perch. I agree, they are very rare and far and few in between, so I doubt they were out of Cutler. The perch I've caught out of Cutler have been very mean looking and have the big old beat up fighter look to them. These were similar in color and shape/ condition to the perch I've caught and seen out of Hyrum. Still a scary thought though.
