RE: Blue Perch!!
I don't think it is a habitat thing as I have fished this same lake summer and winter for quite a few years and caught lots of perch out of it and this is the first blue one I have ever seen or heard of. But who knows. I think it is a genetic flaw in pigmentation. I have contacted NYDEC and they are supposed to get back to me. If they tell me anything I will let everyone know.
