With Sam mentioning he has never had perch, wonder if he has missed out on 'fish boils' and 'smoked chubs' as well? Can you tell I spent some summers in Door County WI?
They sell smoked chubs locally (I think they are from the Great Lakes?). We get them sometimes to have for breakfast, they are good. No perch around here though.
That da#$% arrow is still in the palm tree. It's at waist level, but even with my foot against the tree and a gripper I can't get it loose. Have to get some more, I guess :-)
