Awesome.  I'll be out on Sammamish chasing them this weekend.  Just beer battered up a batch from last year on Friday night.  As tasty as any freshwater fish IMO.

If you are getting those perch along the Columbia, watch out for worms.  Caught some along Hwy 14 and they were so wormy I ended up not eating them.  The bluegills I caught at the same time were delicious though.

that is a good reminder on the worm check,  so far I haven't had any problems...the only ones I have found with any worms  have been from a few perch from a little pond so far in the last couple years...that's why I always fillet them vs gut and cook, it gives you the chance to be extra certain about what you are eating...someone told me that if you just cook it thoroughly that it kills it all anyway, but I don't take any chances with that stuff...yikes... :)
