Yellow perch: early-spawners on the move, Bay Naturalist

Ask any freshwater angler about yellow perch, and the first thing they might tell you is that these beautiful golden-yellow fish with dark vertical bands represent a brand-new fishing year. That’s because they are the migratory “early birds” of the Chesapeake Bay region, with a spawning run ranging from late February to mid-March. After the long, dark months of winter, they are the first good reason for many anglers to break out the rods.
