nice man! thats a pig!

Its funny how no one has degraded the guy for keeping it like someone would have done probably by reply number 6 had it been a 15.5" crappie, then moral critcism would ensue and the topic would be locked.

Thats one helluva perch!

What a monster. Nice fish!!!!!!!

It looks way over 2.5 lbs. THe state record perch was actually caught in a net by a DNR worker. Like many of our state records it is pretty scetchy! The pike record is just as bad....

that perch is bigger than my brothers head and his head is huge

That pic is almost a yr old. LoL

That thing is a serious pig! Congrats

check out the traveling pic of that perch here too . seems more than one person has caught it.

Just to set the record straight on the Huge Jumbo.
It was caught last March 30 in Webster,South Dakota area.
The fish weighed 2 -10 and was 16".
The reason I know is that I caught the fish and never thought it would keep appearing on different forms.
Now you know that facts -

Thanks
Joe

Thanks Joe for giving us the facts! Congrats on the fish btw!
