Steve,
Every time you say Pickerel I think Walleye, but just figured out they are actually a damn Northern Pike 'Slimers' we call'em. Tough to clean but pretty good eating as long as they aren't too big. Best through the ice, but what isn't. Ever try cooking them on lemon slices?
Here's 2 in the box. :P

Looks good I have about 100 spaghetti squash plants that I planted in a large pot..... long story but I snuck then into Neils garden today LOL his diff squashes are all coming up so I took two or three and stuck then in each pile or here and there in the rows.... he will never notice a thing till it is to late LOL read a story about cow birds and how they hide their eggs in other birds nest... so i went for it!
-
They look good Steve, nice white flesh. Ive heard they are hard to clean.

Bear,
No it's walleye. I bought these cleaned but theye are pretty meaty fish. They are caught commercially in the northern part of the great lakes. Beautiful fish

Ya my bad, I thought they where pike. Walleye are supposed to be real sweet, great eating. I don't think they sell them in the States but I could be wrong.

It is the best freshwater fish there is IMHO

Can't see the pictures, photobucket is down, but a Chain Pickerel aka Pickerel is a member of the pike family.
A Walleye on the other hand if some of the best eating freshwater fish you will find. They do sell it, and it can often be found on restaurants around the Great Lakes. -
In the USA maybe. In Canada it's wallleye
We call the chain pickerel grass pikeSteve

Hi L.S.
I studied the manual for your camera. Set the camera setting for close up shots to the "Flower" symbol. Make sure your Autofocus setting is on AF-S. Also look on side of lens and make sure you are set on AF. Link for manual here

Good lookin fish, Steven.

Thanks for clearing up the termonology, Adam....thought he just couldn't spell pictorial

I'm not sure why us Canadians call Walleye Pickerel... but it makes for some confusion with my US fishing buddies. I actually don't know if that's a Canada wide thing, or just a southern Ontario thing? All my life it's been pickerel, until I starting working in the states, now it's Walleye - I do still mess up from time to time and call it Pickerel though.
-
food looks good, but lets get this straight. a pickerel is a pickerel, yes there is a fish that is a pickerel. a walleye is a walleye, and a northern pike is a pike.fukahwee maineyou can lead a fish to water but you can not make him drink it

Amen fishlessman!
All this confused the old fisherman here too. If folks actually had caught a walleye they'd understand real quick why they're called walleyes which are not related to species pickerel (pike).
However pike and muskelunge are all members of the pickerel species. Which incidentally are some of my favorite fish to fight on the end of the line, (lots of razor sharp teeth and a really bad attitude).
Cheers,

I'm with Steven. It's called a pickerel. Yellow pickerel actually. It is a Southern Ontario (Lake Erie) thing though. Elsewhere it's called a Walleye and the proper name is Walleye, but I could care less. It's a pickerel to me as I was born in S. Ont. A chain pickerel is a pike, a Northern pike is a pike, grass pike is a pike and so on. Love pike and musky fishing, but they don't taste like a pickerel.
Here's a recipe! I prefer it battered and go exclusively to Pork Burwell for my pickerel and perch.

For the record, the best fish to eat is a yellow perch. Bar none. Pickerel (Walleye) is up there, but can't touch a yellow perch. Perca flavensens (something like that). I went to the School of Natural Resources in Ontario and it pained me to have to call a Yellow pickerel a walleye. LOL. Dang non southern Ontarians. -
