Lake Roosevelt Walleye trips this week

[ne kid]

 I like burbot the best out of lake Roosevelt. Poor man's lobster.

Yup....grew up in the midwest....now I do love love some fresh fried catfish or a whole mess of bluegill......or crappie.....or perch....ok I like it all.

Yuck.....

Dude!

C'mon now Craig.....definitely good eating but not halibut!

Agreed BUT, They are the best white fleshed, fresh water fish I’ve ever eaten IMHO...I grew up in Michigan catching and eating everything from bullheads & cats, small & largemouths, and every panfish we hauled in. Perch were a close second best! (Imagine that! Perch and walleye tasting similar!)

Walleye are as good as fresh water eating gets. Perch too but they are smaller. They are related both in the Percidae family.

Go Spartans!
