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

I remember reading about a Blue Pike that was in the perch - walleye family that was in lake erie before it got poluted years ago ,maybe what you got ??
Or is there a grape Kool Aid spill in your area ?

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!

It's definately not a sauger. Cool looking.
