I usually keep from 13'' up. Don't need to keep as many that way 8) Love it when you can go home with only a half dozen perch 13"-18" inchers and call it a meal.
i too agree with sparta, if you allready got enough to eat.... 8" and up for me
18"ers?!?!

Relax guys! I was just having some fun I am a trout fisherman at heart and find it amusing how all you perch fisherman get your panties in a bunch whenever someone claims to catch one over 15"...LOL
Hey gumpy2 I had not problem nor did I doubt the 18" measurement. I just figured your ruler had the 1st 3 or 4 inches broke off. By the way sorry to hear about the trout but we won't hold it against you.
I would like to say 9" and up but the lake i fish alot is stunted and there are literally millions around 7 1/2-8 " I keep those trying to help the fishery out and the meat tastes just as good just a little more work for a meal. I am not saying that my limit is made up entirely of 71/2-8" perch i do get some big ones usually in a 50 fish limit 20-25 are the dinks i speak of and usually a few 10 1/2 11" . My 6 yr old son has snuck much smaller ones in the bucket before and they taste fine just watch those fingers
3" and under. It's a lot easier to eat, no filleting, no frying.
Fished on Saturday and caught 1 perch and a bunch of 3-4 inch bass. But what do you consider keeper size?
