Perch are a member of the sunfish family, although they don't look like it. We cut them into fillets and, after skinning and removing the rib cage, the fillets are perfectly bone free. Average size here on Lake Erie runs from 6" to around 14" or so depending on where you are, where they are and the Summer temperature of the lake. Commercial fishermen can keep all over 8", we prefer ours to be over 9" with our average around 10-11". I'll post a link for you about Perch and Lake Erie. :thumbup:

Cynthia, here's a little clip about the Lake Erie Perch. You can find others on YouTube if you want to by searching "Lake Erie Perch fishing"

 

Hope this helps.

 

 

The announcer is a little exuberant, but the idea is the same all over the lake at this time of year.

Yes it does, but he plays around too much. We use electric fillet knives and the whole process for 1 fish takes about as long as he took to cut his first fillet off of the fish. :thumbup:
