I'd rather pay 60 bucks worth of fuel in the truck 60 for fuel in the boat pay the launch and the bait and go catch it before I pay that in the store. At least I could say I had fun catching them...cant say I would have fun at the supermarket lol

Hey @stomp at least on this type of fishing trip you can actually bring some fish home.

Bought beef tenderloin on sale @ $3.49/lb in same store. - seemed like a better deal.

Yep... but you gotta have bank to fish in those waters?.

they sure don't look fresh to me, wonder how long they've been stored. My WILD pike, perch and walleye in my freezer look a lot better than those after they've been thawed.

 

[Fish Farmer]

Saw them at Sobeys today for $22.99, better deal

Makes spending $1000 on building a hut justifiable this season, we did 8 lbs in the fryer last wknd. Was our total haul for the hard ice season .

WOW!! That is just too Crazy of a price for Perch @stomp & just unbelievable!! I would still rather catch my own Perch,but for now,I am Catching Thames River Walleye’s,and they are just as tasty and cheaper for me to go and catch them. ????

 

[Red Fisher]

People buying them have never tasted a fresh lake erie perch or some out of @Three Bouys freezer. They do not look like something I want to cook. Wish I had some on ice!!!1

Every time I go to grocery store I can't go by the seafood without checking prices on Perch and Walleye. Last check at Zehr's, Walleye was $25.99 lb.

 

[packrat]

[giller]

[Ticker]

Yup all that's for the non fisher folks
But I'm down to my last 2 packs

[BallEye2]

Gee - at the price - could justify the cost of a new boat to fish with.

They had a cooler full @ship wrecked, all one day ahead of best before date. When we saw employees huddled around, we elbowed our way throigh and grabbed 3 packages. @Mrs. Stomp is in the process of making steaks for the freezer ahead of BBQ season.
