White Perch!

Created on Thu Jul 14, 2011 by Don Kleiner

We are lucky to have two species of perch. The yellow variety loves shallow warm water and is a staple of my kid fishing trips. They respond well to a worm and a bobber, travel in pretty large schools and can be caught in numbers if you are in the right place. They are well known across a large part of the country and are a prized catch in some places. White perch are not as widely distributed around the country but are certainly on the east coast and sometimes live in brackish water.
