I thought perch were considered "eagle food" in Maine. I worked there for 2 summers and the locals gave me a hard time for keeping and eating such "undesirable" fish as perch.   ::)
Yea that’s the general feel about them here lol. There are a few people here that target perch or other panfish, but most just set traps for bass and trout. I target them cause they are fun and plentiful.

The bigger the better for me. 12" + make for some nice fillets as I don't like to eat any of the meat below the rib cage.
