I love me some Walleye. But it's funny, last summer we caught a few Walleye and a few keeper Pike and cooked them in the same way (some garlic/lemon/butter) and I think I liked the Pike more. It was the first time I'd actually ever eaten a Pike and the only real problem with the Pike is they are bony as hell.Walleye !
Pike is delicious and if you Lear to filet them right, there are no bones. They have y bones that are like a rib cage. If you try to filet them like you would..say a trout, they are inedible due to bones. Once you learn how to properly filet them, you'll have boneless white eat that is delicious. Biggest proble wth pike, is they don't put off a ton of eat. You need a pretty big bastard to get some decent filets.I love me some Walleye.

I've had wild caught Alaskan salmon and that ranks right up there near the top...A neighbor went up there and caught a bunch...sent back some 120lbs on ice....totally different from farm raised...if you like salmon that's top shelf.
Also...pan seared red snapper in a little butter and white wine concoction is great...had that down in the Virgin islands...from the ocean to the plate in about 2 yrs...outstanding!
@Chewbaccer...is there any other way than fried catfish? You know how to filet those bad boys too I bet...I can catch them. but don't know how to clean, prep.
