Yellow perch
The yellow perch is native to North America. The yellow perch is also known as the perch (or striped perch) or American river trout. This fish is very popular in the fishing community. Samuel Latham Mitchill first described the fish in New York in 1814. Because they are native in many freshwater bodies, the name perch is derived. They can be found in rivers and lakes as well as other water bodies.
These fish can be found in all kinds of lakes. These fish are best suited for deep, clean water but can also thrive in small lakes. These trout may not grow as well if they are too many in smaller bodies. They thrive in a wide range of water temperatures, and the smallest ones remain close to shore most of the year. Deeper water is where larger perch can be found. No matter where you find a yellow perch it is important to understand their habitat.
European perch
The European perch is a native fish to Europe. It can also be called redfin perch or big-scaled redfin. Because the fish is so versatile, the name "perch" refers to its broad range. It has a number of names that describe its distinctive appearance, including its size and color. Many people are unaware that the European perch can also be called American, Japanese and Chinese.
The feeding habits of European perch show ontogenetic changes. Their diets changed with their growing size. They began eating prey fish and zooplankton. At 182 mm in length, they started eating fish and other insects. For these fish, the best baits to catch are minnow and raw squid.
Balkhash perch
Balkhash Perch is both a popular fighting fish and a delicious food fish. They live in lakes and streams where the water is overgrown with aquatic plants and are harvested for food, salted, dried, and frozen. The meat tastes similar to that of European Perch and is usually a primary food source for pike-perch. They were harvested as early as 1913, although their numbers have decreased dramatically in recent years.
Balkhash perch (a protected species) is prohibited from being caught in the Ili River valley. Its commercial population can be found in the Alakol Lake, where genetic studies have revealed genetic differentiation between populations and morphotypes. These results can be used to identify commercial populations. Anglers can use these genetic data to determine which population they want to target. Once they have identified the population they can restrict the fishing.
Climbing perch
Climbing perch, an amphibious freshwater fish from Far Eastern Asia, are a species of climbing perch. These labyrinth-shaped fish are found in freshwater systems from Pakistan to Sri Lanka. They are very popular aquarium fish due to their unique shape and ability climb walls. Climbing perch can reach up to six feet. To grow larger, they must live in shallow water, so they do well in artificial environments.
Although native to Southeast Asia, this fish has now spread through Papua New Guinea and Indonesia. Researchers have found them even on islands in the Torres Strait. They have outcompeted their native fish and have established their presence on both islands. They are so prevalent that researchers believe it will prove difficult to remove them in the Torres Strait, unless they can be eradicated. They are relatively easy to eradicate, and they don't attack humans or other fish.

How To
How can I clean my fishing gear properly?
There are many ways to clean your fishing equipment. Some are very simple while others require advanced techniques. Most people use soap and water. Rinse the item with water after washing.

Another thing that you should keep in mind when doing any type of cleaning is to avoid touching the surface of the item. If you touch something dirty, you risk transferring germs onto the object.
You can do many things to improve the fishing gear's quality, other than using soap and water. Special detergents and solvents may be necessary depending on what type of gear you have. Some things should not be used, though, as they may cause damage to your goods. Bleach is one example. Bleach can be used to dissolve plastics and metals, so don't ever use bleach to clean your fishing equipment. Instead, you should use warm water and dishwashing liquid. Only use dishwashing products that are made specifically to clean fish. Dishwashing liquids have enzymes and chemical that help to break down organic material such as scales. They also contain surfactants, which help to remove dirt and grime. You should still consider using a stain-removal product if you are worried about stain removal. Oils and fats on the surface of gear are often responsible for staining. Applying stain-removal products directly to the affected area will help remove the stain and not damage the underlying material.
