He did, he'll pick up a Walleye with all the sharp points and teeth without thinking about it but I had to put the burbot on a stringer for the picture. They're a strange looking, bad smelling and great tasting fish.

They are in the Cod family, BTW no relation to ocean Lingcod.

Texture and flavor is like lobster. Prefer it over Red Lobster !!

Post by: swanny on January 23, 2019, 11:38:36 AM: I need to give it a go sometime when I'm over there. We always go after trout, haven't tried to focus on the walleye or burbot yet.
