Heading out to do some yellow perch fishing tomorrow

The fish the little kids target from the floats in the local marinas are "pile perch", and they may be different from your yellow perch- but a pile perch seems like it's about 80% bones and maybe 20% meat..... Too much work to cook and eat, for what little meat you get, (IMO) http://www.dec.state.ny.us/website/d...ellowperch.gif http://www.shutupandfish.com/walleye/perch/perch.htm We did. Heck, my wife kissed me on the cheek on the way home for the great time! It doesn't get any better than that!! We will pick the fish up tomorrow..........descaled and butterfly filleted professionally...........all 63 of them. Preparing fresh caught yellow perch for the freezer or cooking is quite different from preparing bass or walleye, even over a bottle of beer. At least one person here does not quite understand that..........I am sure you know who I am talking about. as he is the only one bitter that I had a nice day on the water with my wife catching fish. ;-) How sad. |

Their bones are small and you do have to be careful when eating them even when professionally filleted. Unless you catch jumbos the meat yield on the fish is only fair to good. But even the small to medium ones yield enough meat that 3 or 4 are enough for most anyone when cooked properly. We do not keep the small ones. Any worms in them? That seems to be a problem these days. 25 years ago , my parents would buy filets in MN 2-3 times a month and they were great (and cheap). I haven't heard of any available commercially now. Dan |

I think you mean JohnH. ;-) And yes, I was jumped on by Kevin for that positive comment to John. Kevin also jumped on me today for complimenting him on his advice in another thread about a stripped bolt head, one which he offered good advice and refrained from name calling. He called me a twit for complimenting him. ;-) Go figure. Then came the swarm envious only to the locusts of egypt....... Sad, indeed! Very sad. |

Dan Not that we are aware of. Besides we freeze them in a block of ice before taking them out to thaw and cook. |

Yellow perch are fresh water types. Pile perch are salt water type. All
are bony but the yellows are tasty. G "Chuck Gould" wrote in message oups.com... JimH wrote: We did, thanks! Caught 63 of them.
