Perch Fishing - Magazines

I normally purchase the Angling Times to read whats new in the world of fishing and to see any new tips that have evolved and could help me to catch more fish.  Not neccesarily focused to any one species as i enjoy alsorts.  But what has struck me is the lack of Perch articles out there.

I have just trawled through a back log of Angling Times and struggled to find many.  I turned my eye to a few copies of Pike and Predator Magazine in the garage, these mainly focused upon Pike fishing.  Now understandably Pike fishing is more popular and Angling Times has its Carp section and Barbel get a lot of coverage too.  But why don’t they ever run a mini series on the Perch ?  Such a wonderful powerful fish that is the pleasure of most young anglers when they start the sport.  To me its a new found obsession and finding information regarding these fish isn’t the easiest to come by.

Also there is the Perchfishers website but again this doesn’t hold a wealth of information upon targetting this species, and in forums they also get a backseat.  I am then left thinking to myself of creating a solely focussed website upon Perch fishing, and if the interest is out there i shall try to incorporate a forum to this species as well. 

Could you all please let me know if this would be of interest, and also i will need contributors to help create a database of articles to try and support those new and those experienced in the awesome Perch. 

I look forward to your comments and thoughts.
