    Great episode! I do have a question. In the Winnebigosh area all the perch seem to have a white worm parasite in them. Some perch have only a couple and some are loaded. I have been told that they are fine to eat… just cook them good. I would prefer finding clean perch and I am looking for new areas. Does anyone know if the ND and SD perch have these worms?

    I’ve never caught perch in SD or ND with those worms.

    That looked like an incredible day! Maybe not quite Cascade or pool 8 Perch, but dang fun, and super tasty!

    Fried! A good cajun batter with some panko to pump up the crunch a bit and I’m a happy guy.

    Is there a bad way to cook/eat perch?
