    Did you catch that perch near weeds? If the lake has weeds, there'll be some perch in them or close by. Every predator fish in the lake likes to eat young perch so not many make it to full size. Even bluegills love them.

    Very good eatin. Daron and i have caught a couple. The last one we cleaned, i wish we would have released her now.

    We had two special catches that weekend. A magnolia or black nose crappie and a yellow perch. The magnolia went back to be caught another day.

    CX .... probably not any true "Magnolia" Crappie in KY. But, there's plenty of the Blacknose Black Crappie in several of our lakes.

    That's a beast of a lake perch for Kentucky! I cut my teeth on lake perch fishing lake Michigan and they are the best eating fresh water fish that there is in my opinion!! I caught a lot of 18 and 19 inch perch but to see one like that out of Kentucky lake is very promising!!! Perch need a lot of weeds and cover for reproduction and that's one thing we do not have a lot of here in the lake! Barkley more then Kentucky but it would be a blast to add that to are list of many fishing options! How great would that be to have a May perch run on the lake? Great catch!
