Yellow perch occur in all major drainages of Minnesota. They live in both lakes and streams, including Lake Superior and the trout streams of the North Shore. Yellow perch are more abundant in lakes and backwaters of large rivers than they are in swift-flowing streams.
How Long Do They Live? Female yellow perch grow faster and reach an overall bigger size than males do. Some females get to almost 375 mm (15 in) and weigh over 0.5 kg (1 lb). But it is more common to find both sexes at lengths of 200-290 mm (8-11 in) and average weights of 170-300 g (6-10 oz).
