[4]: 15 The greatest demand in the United States is in the north-central region, where nearly 70% of all yellow perch sales in the US occur within 80 km (49.7 mi) of the Great Lakes. [4]: 16 Yellow perch is one of the easiest fish to catch, and can be taken in all seasons, and tastes great. Therefore, it is a desirable sport fish in some ...

[1] Species include: Alabama shad (Alosa alabamae) Alligator gar (Atractosteus spatula) American eel (Anguilla rostrata) American gizzard shad (Dorosoma cepedianum) American paddlefish (Polyodon spathula) Arkansas darter (Etheostoma cragini)
[13] [14] The yellow perch can be found in the central parts of the United States in freshwater ponds, lakes, streams, or rivers. These fish can be found in freshwater all over the world, and are known to inhabit the Great Lake region, in particular Lake Erie. These fish inhabit bodies of water where vegetation and debris is readily accessible.
To put those angler catches in perspective, in 1988 sport anglers caught 869,164 perch in the lake, including 133,328 in Kenosha, 213,163 in Racine and 408,438 in Milwaukee counties.
The following is a list of lakes in Oklahoma located entirely (or partially, as in the case of Lake Texoma) in the state.

Freshwater fish are fish species that spend some or all of their lives in bodies of fresh water such as rivers, lakes, ponds and inland wetlands, where the salinity is less than 1.05%. These environments differ from marine habitats in many ways, especially the difference in levels of osmolarity .
The energy content of the trout-perch was 4795 joules, whereas yellow perch and round goby energy content were lower; 4662 joules and 3740 joules respectively. [ clarification needed ] [ citation needed ] These findings are the main reason, scientists believe the trout-perch is an important source of food for other species in their habitat.
