The Perch fish is a “lake” fish mainly , although as many avid anglers , outdoors people and even occasional hunters know, that it can also be often found in rivers , brooks and streams . When found alongside rivers the species seems to prefer cool water, that is clean and covered with either sandy, rocky bottoms. Nevertheless the Perch is a favorite in mainly gravel pits – the crystal clear deep gravel sand pit at Beasejour Manitoba gravel pits. Its color can vary somewhat, but generally the body is yellow, with a dark belly and dark green on the back. Young avid fisherman / kids can point out to the basic standard variety has between six to eight dark green “bands” down the sides of the creature.

Although this common member of the pan fish family is not rated by everyone and everyone as a top-notch trophy game fish, it does rank with a lot of people and even culinary authorities as a real and true gourmet delight.
Today the fish can be found throughout the North America – both Canada and the USA and in most states of the union and Canadian Provinces. Perch can be easily be taken by the most novice of angler with hook and line and almost every kind and variety of lure or bait even including nymphs or dry flies reports Segfus Isfeld of the long held Winnipeg Beach Icelandic fishing family regime.
Perch fish usually weigh in the range and neighborhood of between ¼ to ¾ lbs (100 to 200 grams). Occasionally reports commercial fishing expert and fisherman Raymond Isfeld , “whoppers” in the 1 -2 lb class (½ to 1 kilogram) are pulled up by the highly commercial fisherman on Lake Winnipeg during the long cold Manitoba winter fishing season. Monsters of perch fish they are indeed.
Wonder how these larger perch, the monsters of the shallows, taste at a “Perch Fry”: fried up in butter. The beauty is that even the smaller and tinier perch sure taste good with almost anything and everything and sure goes a long way when it comes to feeding a hungry crowd. Served alone, served battered, served as part of a larger meal, with wine, Coca Cola or a cold Canadian Molson beer you cannot go too wrong with perch.
