And on the way home I stopped at another white perch pond and ended up with this instead..........not on anybody's stocking list either.

Cool pics. Your dog seems to like them, too!

real nice, beautiful looking , fish George. I think they get them down the street from me in Assonet. FIFA looks happy too. GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLL

hhhhmmmm . . . . . taste like . . . . never mind. :devil2:

They are good eating too....

what is the local name ?

shiner's we used to call them in the charles river area
same name used for the baitfish, when i was growing up

you could catch them on bread dough
(skinnier than that)........... by the bucket full

not sure if the species i am talkin about
is now protected though

because i was thinking it would
make a good cut bait for stripers

White Perch!

When I first move to NE, 30 odd years ago, I caught those things by the dozen and threw them all back. Haven't caught one since..DOH!!!:smash:

Have to admit when I saw the title thread I thought the thread author would be Raider Ronnie and that it would be about Obama. I guess the "e" in morone should have tippped me off.

Cool pics.

George, that brown was stocked last spring.

I remember catching a butt load of them in lake zoar when i was a kid. Was LMB fishing with my dad and we werent hitting any, so i switched to a small grub jig and caught them 1 after another. Fun fish.

I caught a nice one a few springs ago in a tidal estuary . They are supposed to be great eating , no?

Nice fish I lost a beautiful hold over brown today
