Second hand info, take it for whats its worth?? My local grocery store has be selling lake perch (yellow), for a while now. Have tired it a few times and its ok, no, not as good as the same day you caught them, but my freezer was a perch desert this yr past?
They have always been smaller size fillets, today's fresh stock looks real good, much larger fillets, and they've added the word " Jumbo" to the package. I know the store's meat guys so I asked were these come from, so he called his fish guy well I was there.
Fish tugs are fishing out of Wheatley, in/at "The Bay's", and slamming perch, sounds like large females? I don't know the lake down that way so not clear if this is a specific spot or just anywhere where the shore line changes? Like I started with, here say? Fish guy said 79 totes perch, for his supplier, one day, I don't know, wasn't really listening, and I don't know how much perch that is, or how big a tote is? sounds like a lot? Also said pickerel were plenty, but not targeting them because there larger than market wants?
