[quote Ratfinkee]I can recall my dad telling me about the perch in Deer Creek, and how when they would catch them and throw them up on the bank, because they were considered a trash fish..[/quote]
I think your dad needs to try some of TD's chow down perch chowder, and he'll change his tune.
I know that's done with carp - though I know folks that live on some of them shores will ask you - please don't!
But with perch - I think that falls into the "wasting fish" category, to which the proclamation says - "no no". Many places the perch can serve as a good cut-bait source.
If you don't want em- you can 'donate' them to me. I'll smoke some and give em back to you . Again - change of tune. Besides they serve as a good food source for other bigger game-fish.
