Nice big clean healthy looking fish! The shield area walleyes have such a distinct look and color to them.We get such a green color walleye from Lake Winnipeg/Red River. Gorgeous fish! A few lakes near here have blue walleye in them

That’s a good looking walleye Hutchy. Jerk baits at night are a fun way to catch them too.

Hutchy,
Does everyone in your area call them walleye? The guys that I know in the Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario area all call them pickerel. No, everyone calls them pickerel and they are dead wrong. Walleye belong to the same family as sauger, and pickerel resemble pike, and we don't have pickerel here. Pickerel subspecies include chain pickerel, and grass pickerel and one more I can't recall.

Love it. Perch and Walleyes is all I fish. Id love to keep the water size, 16-22" fish, but the biologists have determined those must go back lol. I try for 23-24 for the freezer

Exactly right Hutchy. Walleye and sauger are in the perch family (percidae). Pike, pickerel and muskie are members of the Esocidae family. Is redfin pickerel the one you are trying to remember?
Eh...wot?

Pickerel is the Canadian name for Yellow Pickerel.
The American "walleye"name came from those catering to American tourists and the resulting articles in Magazines around the 1980's.
Real Canadians still call Yellow Pickerel- Pickerel.
The French also have it correct and call them Dore which translates to golden pickerel.

It’s okay Boco. You and the rest of the “real” Canadians just go ahead and keep calling various species of fish by you’re cute, colloquial names. The rest of us will continue to call them by their actual, proper names.

If a carp is a minnow, and walleyes are pickerel, What's a pickerel then?  Nice one Hutch, the 500 inch thing bruised my brain cell lol. My biggest is 28, Erie, mounted it in friends smoker. The slots seem strange but the catchin looks fun.

i dont buy that ratmasterson.You got plenty of fish down there.
Its because you love Canadian lifestyle once you get a taste of the solitude and freedom,even though you are too proud to admit it-but thats fine-I get that.
