This may sound wierd but i was fishing with my friend on Clarks Hill lake on the Ga side. Well my friend was using a lipless crank bait when a fish hit he got it right up to the boat and i thought it may be a bass but when he got it close to the boat i could of swore it was a perch. Ive seen them before and im sure it was a brim or crappie because it was to long and skinny it was green black and had orange fins. The fish got away when we got it next to the boat. I wasnt really sure we had Perch but i was just wonderin!
Thanks
i take it you are from georgia. i thought georgia was loaded with perch.
I wasnt sure I always see stuff on ice fishing for them and stuff but i almost never fish big lakes like this. Im used to fishing in just farm ponds and stuff so that may be why. Sorry if it was dumb just kinda curious
Up at Lake Tugalo, I catch Perch and brim all the time.
Oh ok! Thanks i just never have caught any and i was told a long time ago Georgia didnt have Perch but apparently that person didnt know what he was talking about then
not a stupid question. ask away.
Orange on the fins sounds like a "Warmouth Bass".
Which is basically a perch or bream.

Lets see... Long and thin, green and black with orange fins. That would be a Yellow Perch. The Savannah River drainage is full of them.
Years ago when I was in school at UGA I was fishing below the Hartwell dam. It was a put and take cold water fishery for trout. There were also tons of nice yellow perch below the dam. I found a wad of them up next to log out in the middle of river beside a big rock. Every drift of a worm through the hole resulted in a very nice yellow perch. I was being watched very carefully by the local warden who was waiting for me to wade out. He was somewhat disappointed that my stringer was full of perch insted of what he thought was an excess of stream chicken trout. He was impressed none the less with the perch. They made for several good meals for me and my roommates.
