Default Blue Perch!!

I caught this odd perch yesterday on Chateaguay Lake. I was wondering if anyone else has ever seen one of these.

Sort of looks like a perch / walleye cross.
If it was mine I woud freeze it and talk to the DNR game bioligest if you have them in your state

I am no biologist but I have the answer.........It is feeling blue because it has been caught.

I am going to get it mounted. I never thought the first fish I had mounted would be an 8" perch. LOL

There wasn't three eyes on the other side of that fish by any chance? Does it glow in the dark? Kinda funny looking, but nature has a funny way of doing things sometimes, doesn't it!


pretty neat though!
