Yellow perch are legal bait. Go to the MA Wildlife site and check out the regs.

Yea there are no size limit or number limit on how much you can take so they are fair game as bait 6 to 8 inch works well for big bass in the summer if you want to cheat or get bored haha

Yellow perch 3-5 inches are laker candy. Smallies love them too. Sometimes I use my leftovers for pike through the ice.
