APPLETON, WI (WTAQ-WLUK) – Folks looking to enjoy perch during their traditional Lenten season will likely find some but will have to pay a little extra for a plate on Friday nights.
“When we do have Great Lakes perch its more expensive, but it is available.”
Restaurants are dipping into funds, to make sure perch is on the menu.
Mike Utech is the Manager of Appleton American Legion Club 38 Bar and Grill. He tells FOX 11 the average price of Great Lakes yellow perch in 2015 was about $10 per pound. Now, its selling for about $15.
“It’s been difficult to get lake perch from Wisconsin or the Great Lakes much of that is too expensive or not being caught.”

New Riff Barrel Pick Bracket Challenge (Bourbon Pursuit Podcast #292)
Single barrel picks are the new unicorns. And if you add a fancy sticker, aftermarket wax or some glitter, bourbon nerds can’t control themselves. For this podcast, the team thought it would be a fun idea if our audience sent us samples from their New Riff barrel selections and we put them in a bracket challenge. We decide who selected the best barrel and gets Bourbon Pursuit bragging rights.
