I really like the look of that fish.  Hey taxidermist1 - could you paint a yellow perch like that?

Piece of cake. White it out. Then chrome pearlescent. Then some blue on the back and voila you have a blue perch!

White perch? white bass?? Check a fish ID site.
You can not take too many perch, unless you can not clean them, give them to your friends and neighbors to clean and cook. The more perch you take, the faster and bigger the rest  will grow. The walleyes and bass will survive from fry to fingerlings.

Maybe this pic gives a better idea of the color.

Definitely blue form of yellow perch. It was identified by a biologist. I contributed the pic to Perca.
