Serve 'em up breaded, deep fried and free at all the local watering
holes on Friday nights. It worked here.

There's your regional differences for you. The demise of the yellow perch
around here is sorely lamented. Time was, a fella could take a bucket o'
minnows out on the tidal Gunpowder River in the springtime & catch his fill
before lunch. Word was they were good eatin', though I was never a big
panfish fan. Nowadays, though, there are size limits, catch limits, closed
seasons. Most here see the demise of the abundance of yellow perch as
symptomatic.
