When does a perch spawn?

Answer 1

Perch typically spawn in the spring, when water temperatures reach around 45 to 55 degrees Fahrenheit (7 to 13 degrees Celsius). This usually occurs between late March and early June, depending on the geographic location and local climate conditions. During spawning, perch migrate to shallow waters where females lay their eggs on submerged vegetation or structures, while males fertilize them. The exact timing can vary based on environmental factors, such as water temperature and photoperiod.
