Was curious if they were even available commercially. 5# for $122. Does anyone up north know if these are farm raised or caught from the wild? I don't think I'd take $20+ a pound if I had any.
Life ain't supposed to be easy.

We serve Lake Erie Perch at out restaurant. The fishery is only 50 yards down the hill at the marina from us. I think were paying $5 a pound and the fisherman will let us know when they had a great catch and when it would be ready. We buy it all summer long until they pull the nets in Oct so we can have it through the winter. Sometimes we are the only restaurant locally that has any.

$17.99 per pound in Cleveland. (Seven Seas Seafood) located at Lorain and W168th Street, I may be off by a street or two. The perch are fresh not frozen. It's hit and miss for perch this past year. Fishing for them last year was a waste of time and minnows but the walleye are making a come back.

Perch fillets scaled with skin left on taste best to me. That is my favorite fish of all time. But if I don’t have any perch, walleye or halibut become my favorite.
I am out of all fish. I have not been able to buy any perch, walleye, or halibut all winter. Cannot find any. I will buy 10 pounds of commercially caught Lake Erie perch right now if I could find it.
