I caught a Blue Perch....anyone else?

[Churchill River]

I posted on the Blackstrap forum that I caught a Blue Perch yesterday.  In checking the
website they are saying the chances of catching one are 1 in millions.

Just wondering if anyone else has been lucky enough to catch one in Blackstrap or other lakes here in
Saskatchewan.

I caught this last summer at Lake of the Prairies. It was entirely blue and didn't have any typical perch stripes ... very odd.

Those pop up on the shanty from time to time, very rare indeed. Thanks for sharing.

Now that one is very different, that the first I’ve ever seen without stripes, let alone blue. Sure it’s a perch Or not from Chernobyl?!

Now that is different D.D.  I have caught two perch in the last 10 years on the Strap with the stripes running horizontal instead of vertical, but
never seen a perch with no stripes.....I would of lost money on that bet.

I caught one on the weekend on Blackstrap. This was actually the first perch I've ever caught - so much for one in a million!

i've caught one that looked really faded like jeb's there, not totally sure it was actually a blue perch or not, definitely not nearly as blue as yours, could be a lighting thing too though, who knows. i didn't even take a pic i didnt really realize it was anything particularly special until reading about it some time afterwards.

Jeb, I hope you went out and bought a lottery ticket. 

Nice job on your first Perch being a Blue Perch.

Those are uniquely colored perch, wow.
Congrats on your neat catches guys.
