With all due respect....those perch look terrible..looks like they were kept in water after they were dead......that is one of the worst things you can do for a fine catch of Perch such as those....May I suggest you bury them in ice in a cooler and you will notice a big difference in your catch....Just my thoughts
Really. He can do what he likes with HIS catch. Good catch Bernie. Just sayin.
I used to be a commercial fisherman out of Wasaga Beach...We kept our fish on ice for firmness...Looks....and taste..fish rots very fast in water when it's dead...especially when it's warm.. You can keep a fish on ice for 2 to 3 days. It should be completely covered in shaved ice....@Thirstystone just curious when you say ice them instead of keeping them cool in water. What will the taste difference be. I'm always looking for new advice. Just curious.
