Hi
I rarely see perch in supermarkets in FL and only once (frozen) in Walmart (ugh) so I never think to look for it anymore in places like Whole Foods or Fresh Market.
Can’t remember the last time I ever ate it, probably at a restaurant. Does it have small bones? It’s a fresh water fish so I’m thinking it would be more available in coastal states. Wonder if it is expensive. Had some frozen Haddock couple of weeks ago that had some tiny bones but not enough to choke on. I wish they would stop selling that trashy tilapia. I can’t even remember seeing perch on menus and I always peruse the seafood items.
Will let you know if I ever come across it.

FL Mary

@imallears We use to fish for it in fresh water ,lakes ,ponds,. It has a pinkish scales on it Its been so long since I had it . It has small bones and a little sweet taste I think. Maybe we only had it in Northeastern states ,since the weather is cooler ,anyone else have Perch? I agree cant stand Tilapia it is trashy yes
