Thanks again John…I do both John, I’m different than most anglers in that I like to filet small gills…..I will also scale and gut small and medium gills to fry whole, my wife has always preferred to eat the gills off the bone…..we fry in peanut oil dusted in very fine yellow corn meal…..my favorite is the smaller fish fried crispy….granted most people don’t want to filet three to five inch gills and I understand but it’s my taste addiction…..skinning yellow perch is definitely preferred, you can filet but you must have a very sharp knife and cut at the correct angles or you will struggle, it’s like leather……

Jeffrey Nice job on the Gills .Do you filet and  fry the Gills with or without skin or fry  after taking the heads off ? Whats yor favorite way to prepare?  Do you skin the Perch (My preferred way)  or Filet ?

I kept 27 Gills under 8” yesterday and fried them up last night before the Daytona race started….I also kept six yellow perch and three goggle eyed perch today getting ready for the UNC football game Friday night….
