Nuh uhhh! You have to have went Walleyeing before :confused:
If not I hope your hooked, actually you have to be, you loved it didnt you?
By the way I'm pretty sure thats a Sauger in your pic there, but DEFINITELY a keeper :congrats:
So when are we going?

Not a keeper .  Slot fish,, I wanted to trim it. :eyebrow:. It was fun and I'm probably hooked.  But I spent my years chasing other game. Foolish pursuits I know now.  Anyhoo,, variety is the spice of life! :laf:

Just for you Jim! :readthis:  Walleyes have a white tip on the lower tail fin; do not have distinct blotches or mottling on the sides; forward (spiny) portion of the dorsal has dark streaks or blotches rather than the distinct black spots.
  Sauger do not have a white tip on lower tail fin; back is crossed with several dark saddles or blotches extending down both sides; distinct black spots on forward portion  of dorsal fin aligned in rows.
  Got it? :shrug: Goood :laf:

Got it, but I already knew that. :laf:
White is Walleye
Spots in Sauger
And I still dont see the white spot on it's tail, but I'm assuming there must be one there somewhere based the way your scolding me. :laf:

HaMeR...exactly like that :wink:
