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.
Yellow perch do not accelerate quickly and are relatively poor swimmers. The fastest recorded speed for a school was 54 cm/s (12.08 mph), with individual fish swimming at less than half that speed. Life history. Yellow perch spawn once a year in spring using large schools and shallow areas of a lake or low-current tributary streams. They do not build a redd or nest. Spawning typically takes place at night or in the early morning. Females have the potential to spawn up to eight times in their lifetimes.
