I did not guess like you did, I looked it up and perch live 7-9 years there boss, since you lived in SAd that makes you an expert? Alittle history on myself than, I grew up in NE Montana, so I think we have about the same credentials, only been here 12 years..... This is my thinking, a ton of little perch will eat more invertebrates than big ones, there growing rapidly, and obviously it's better too have many big versus little, take cascade versus any lake in the state, y'all keep saying keep the big ones and let the little go.... How is that good practice, seems like you are being selfish, and wanting too turn cascade into every other lake in the state with stunted little perch.... The only time I keep anything over 14" sometimes 13" is for a tourney.... Be a sportsman and stop being selfish, those big perch eat a ton of those little ones too help out the Eco-system, I could be off base but it seems pretty reasonable too me,
