How to Catch

The Yellow Perch can be caught just like any other fish in the game. All you need to do is whip out your fishing rod and then press the A button to throw the lure in the water. Now, hit A when you see that a fish has latched on. You can always use bait if you’re having trouble with the fish appearing in the river.

Sell Price

Once you finally get your hands on a Yellow Perch, you can sell it to Nook’s Cranny for 300 bells or you can always take it to CJ for 450 bells.

Hopefully, that helped you catch a Yellow Perch in Animal Crossing New Horizons for the Switch. If you need more help catching all of the fishes, you can head over to our dedicated Guide Wiki.
