Nice catches. Admittedly, I haven't started this season yet but I'm going to prepare to fishing in the spring. Some pics from expedition by the river thru all night.

Indeed. In Latin it is Perca fluviatilis. Description changed.
No better eating than bass, perch and pike IMO!
Smoked eel is also good.
If you can get them big enough Perch have arguably no equal here.
A 40 cm Pike would become pickled at my house. :tu
My category would be in this order of favorites.
1. Yellow perch
2. Sunfish/bluegill's
3. Walleye
4. Catfish
