What's a good perch limit weight?

I'm with you Airshot. We fillet our own as wife doesn't want skin on them, and a wife co-captain gets whatever she wants, lol.

So we only keep the larger ones. The little guys are just to hard to fillet.

However, most of our guests want to keep everything regardless of size.

I hear ya, what the wife wants, she usually gets..when I fish with my neighbor he always kept most everything, but the when we cleaned them, I gave him all the small ones to clean as I am not the one keeping them!! He is slowly changing his mind about keeping little ones!! Lol..

I know about the wife comments. My first mate likes the skin on. That's why I have 2 tumblers and butterfly them. I prefer butterfly too. A smaller perch is still a decent bite butterflied. If it's filleted and skinned it's like a potato chip once cooked.

Thanks for the replies. Sounds like we did OK. Guess I'm a little too critical
