ok all you perchjerkers i got a question for ya...we have all seen how our western brothers love the perch and i have always heard about one being better tasting than the other . my question is. have you eaten perch and do you prefer yellow or white?
they have to be tenderized by an auger wanna see?
White Perch are fresh water haddock, but I wouldn't eat a yellow perch.
yellow perch are nothing short of delicious.. there are a couple restaraunts here that even serve it. I know for a fact that I could bread crumb/deep fry a small mess of pike, walleye, and yellow perch and VERY few people would be able to tell me the difference. You Maine boys will hate this too, but northern pike is my favorite fish to eat. Its TASTY.
both are great eating as long as the water is cold. they taste weedy from the warm water.
the eagles don't seem to mind them we toss em on the ice
