Popular Post hotfishgirl Posted May 4, 2022 Popular Post Report Share Posted May 4, 2022 I know this species is often used as a joke but i would rather catch this species then any other fish. I have been targeting them this year and for my efforts i have caught stripe bass on many of the trips. Today i finally caught a state pin. I also had a monster of a stripe bass try and eat one of my other catches but that sharp dorsal fin must have made it to hard for him to eat. I have been using an ultra light set up with 6lb test and cast masters have been the best lure for me. mcnar, ermghoti, Rmarsh and 14 others 17 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FishermanTim Posted May 4, 2022 Report Share Posted May 4, 2022 They are fun to catch, and they fight like crazy. The only other fish that fights as hard are smallmouth bass. Â White perch are a tasty white meat fish that's hard to beat. It's one species I like to target thru the ice. Â great catch! I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy!

Killiefish Posted May 7, 2022 Report Share Posted May 7, 2022 (edited) White perch make great fish chowder. Add onion, milk, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and butter. Simmer. Done.  Oh wait....also add bacon...forgot that bit.
