In most states the record perch is between 2 to 3 pounds. Perch caught are usually 4 to 11 inches long, but jumbo perch do exist. You can find them in almost every lake.Īccording to a WDFW biologist I talked to, they usually make up about 80% of the biomass in the lakes where they are present. They have been introduced into our local waters – both via official and unofficial routes. Perch are native to North America, but not to the Pacific Northwest. The vertical fishing techniques are also applicable to ice fishing. This article is focused on fishing from a boat, but much of it can be adapted if fishing from shore or a dock. In this article I’ll go cover everything you need to know to go out and catch tons of perch.
It is a great way to get kids into fishing. However perch fishing can be alot of fun, and they are quite tasty. I’ve only met a few people who fish for yellow perch, and many of them talk about it in whispers – like they are afraid to admit it in public. Here in the Pacific Northwest it seems like salmon and steelhead get all the glory.
