Pikeslayer Posted January 17, 2015 Report Posted January 17, 2015 I'm guessing Rick was nowhere near that fish?
HTHM Posted January 18, 2015 Report Posted January 18, 2015 From Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yellow_perch The world record yellow perch (18 in., 4 lb. 3 oz.) was caught in 1865 from New Jersey, and is the longest standing record for freshwater fish in North America.[1] Anglers often refer to large yellow perch as "jumbo perch" or "jack perch". Looking at that one makes me wonder.

Joeytier Posted January 18, 2015 Report Posted January 18, 2015 From Wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yellow_perch The world record yellow perch (18 in., 4 lb. 3 oz.) was caught in 1865 from New Jersey, and is the longest standing record for freshwater fish in North America.[1] Anglers often refer to large yellow perch as "jumbo perch" or "jack perch". Looking at that one makes me wonder. Article states that it is an ice fishing record. Very impressive regardless
