I saw one that size once all the way up to the boat and my brother in law wouldn't let line or loosen the drag so.i could get thg e new and he lost it
If you sit around all day and do nothing your a bum, but if you sit in a boat all day or in a shanty and do nothing they call you a fisherman

I'd like to see it with an adult and not held out. Better yet, on a bump board. Still, a super nice perch.

Nice perch.
My biggest was caught accidentally while fall fishing for smallmouth on Lake Simcoe.
Taped out @ 16 1/2". Don't know what the weight was as I released it. Probably should have stuck it on the wall. Maybe I'll get a reproduction done along with my big musky and have the musky chasing the perch. 🤔🤔🤔

I agree with you but it's still a good size fish.  I don't think it's a lot smaller than it appears in the picture because of the size of it's mouth.

An excellent stiff-arm for a young dude!   It shows the perch well-

That was a nice perch.  I caught a 15" perch out of Irondequoit bay a few years back.  What a crowd that drew.
