Siniperca scherzeri "guilin" This fish was caught by a spear fisherman, these are pretty rare in the wild, especially at this size. Look at the amazing leopard pattern on this fish. The other fish below were collected by other fisherman in the morning and all dumped into a big basket, destined for the market. I was debating on buying this perch to free him or to eat him, but I waited a bit too long, and a restaurant owner bought it. It would have cost me about $40.00 usd to buy him direct from the fisherman. There was no way for me to export him, I would either freed him or cooked him up.
