MyFishFinder.com Just like iceshanty but warmer
what makes em taste bad... they are very bony, and are a form of a herring, so I suppose if you like herring have at em. not the same as a white perch, different family alltogether. cisco and whitefish look like a giant version of a pike minnow, white perch are silver, and shaped like a perch with lots of spiny fins and rays. if you fish open water in lake ontario in the spring you often cant keep these guys off your lines. lots of guys catch em thru the ice in chaumont as well.
I found this about Lake Ontario Whitefish, cisco, and walleye stocking for Lake Ontario. Hopefully we will be catching more.http://query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=F50C11FC345F10738DDDAE0A94D9405B8185F0D3
