Hi! I'm Plunker and I'm a BONKER! Yes, I eat wild steelhead. I just can't seem to break myself of that consumption function. They taste to damn good.

I must confess to my hypocrisy though. I release all wild large scale suckers, pea-mouth chubs, bullheads and whitefish and most of the wild dollies, chum and humpies I catch.

I also catch and release wild perch. How many of you keep wild perch? If you do you should learn to release them.

THAT SHOULD BE THE LAW!

Did you know that without wild perch to provide sustenance for some of our larger and better eating gamefish like bass we would have fewer of the larger of these delicacies to bonk?

Please join me in founding the "Wild Perch Coalition" to lobby for the preservation of these unique and valuable fish. We must stop the slaughter! We must initiate sensible legislation making it criminal to purposely kill perch.

If we can save even one perch it will be worth any measure of energy we can direct towards this cause. Remember! You can make a difference.
