Caught this today jiggin. It's not very big but pretty cool. Read about these on here before but never saw one myself. The guy I fish with has never seen one either. Wish I had the camera with me on the ice cause these pics don't do the color of it when it first came out of the water justice.

I caught one in Dec. and thought it was strange too. They are rare to catch for sure. I talked to a professor at State of Minnesota he's doing a study on them and is looking for slime samples and or the entire fish. So if you have'nt fried it yet, you may want to check out Bluewalleye.com, there is contact info and sampling instructions. He claims the slime is blue in color, I did'nt know and did'nt notice any blue color. The cool thing is he's a fisherman and a scientist looking out for our sport.

Thanks Steve and Jay. I will be sure to check that site out. I actually froze the fish whole in water as I plan on doing a multi perch mount and want this fish to be part of it. We have caught literally thousands of perch from this lake over the yrs and have not seen anything like this before. Yeah I know the pic quality sucks I took them on our DV recorder and there doesn't seem to be much for a still pic menu.

Neat looking perch, way to go ChrisinSTJVT. 8)
It should look good in a mount with normal colored perch.

Yes just dropped it off yesterday. The taxaderimist was so interested in it that he said he would start on it right away and have it done by first of april. Thought that was pretty decent of him and he said he would do both sides so it could be set up however I want later. Most places around here are 6mths to a yr.

That's a rare catch- I wouldn't be ashamed keeping or mounting that. Nice fish-I've been waiting for one of them myself and chances are it will never happen. That will be a pretty mount with other perch with it.

This fish was caught in northern VT.
Believe me I am not ashamed about keeping it.
I think the point is it's a BLUE PERCH I don't think it matters much wether it's 7" or 17".
Thanks I can't wait to see it mounted also.
