I go a lake in Maryland that you regularly catch perch that size and up. Here are a days catch 2 years ago that 5 of us pulled off the ice. The first link is the one bluegill that was close to 11". We pull 12's often. The perch Are huge there. As for the pickerel that is a buddy of mine that keeps them I would never placed close to the perch.
