Walleye recipes!

[Reverend JC]

Going on a fishing trip soon and need some walleye reciepes.


With out getting into to much detail i have the following tried and true ones already:

Pan Fried
Deep fried
Cajun blackend
Thia walleye bites
Pecan Crusted


Any others would be appreciated. I would really love to get ride of the Pan fried version, kind of a waste of time when we have the ability to deep fry.

I was thinking about maybe taking some chorizo and some good bread and making a walleye po-boy.

Take some foil and put in your Walleye filet with some butter, loads of minced garlic, some sea salt, fresh ground pepper, and a pinch of dill. Wrap up and put on the grill till it flakes with a fork.

Kinda like Walleye Scampi. Serve with a nice chilled Kölsch or Hefe.

Hmmm Good.

Oh, Thai Walleye bits.... sounds delicious.

Those pretty much cover my recipes for my favorite fish...the walleye.
One thing I almost always do if coating/breading the walleye is soak it in buttermilk for about an hour before breading. Makes the fillet very juicy and succulent

 

[Yooper]

What about :

Oven baked walleye
6 walleye fillets
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1 cup fresh breadcrumbs
1/2 tsp of either rosemary or tarragon
1/3 cup melted butter

Place fillets in shallow baking dish. Spread with mayonnaise. Combine bread crumbs, seasoning, and melted butter and spread on fillets. Bake about 30 minutes at 375.

I like walleye pretty "plain" since it's such a good fish!

Just do it the way dear old Dad used to: Pancake batter and beer, then deep fry.

Do Walleye have those "Y" shaped bones like Pickerel?

Shhhh, that's an old Indian secret recipe.

Anyone know how to cook an eel pout?

Nope. Walleye are super easy to fillet.

Lol, dunno bout a pout, but I do brine and smoke American Eel. Good stuff! Which reminds me, I gotta hit the Eel run this year!

My dad eats them all the time. He steams them in a vegetable basket, then dips it in garlic butter. He reckons they taste better than Lobster. I have to say, I have eaten eelpout prepared this way, and it's pretty damned tasty. The meat almost does have a lobster like consistency.

Where do you get Pouts down there? I only get them ice fishing in Minnesota.

 

[Dr Vorlauf]

Awesome pic Ed. I used to love my winter trips to MN especially seeing the ice shanty towns that spring up on the lakes complete with street signs !

eye's are the bigger cousins of the yellow perch and are even tastier when small, say 15-19 in, after that your better off just letting em go to for brood stock

I think Pete is a native Minnesotan, only recently gone Down Under. If you hadn't posted that pic I wouldn't have known what the hell you were talking about. Normal people call them lawyers, and they are disgusting fish. We just leave them lay on the ice. Blech.

BTW what lake is that pic taken on? this is the first year in the last ten that we did not go up to Winnebegoshish for perch. Bummer.

I don't think they exist down here (thank god, the KARP are bad enough) Dad is back in Minnesota and he gets his eelpout on Mille Lacs

You are right BB, I am a native minnesotan, been in AUS for 8 years.


Funny you say that about throwing them out on the ice.. Dad goes out and picks them up and takes them home to eat.

But then he has also been known to eat:
Snapping Turtles
Karp
Bullheads
Raccoon
Beaver Tail
Cow Testicles
Pickled Trotters
Blood Sausage (Black Pudding)


And anything else that he sees fit for consumption...

That is Lake of the Woods, MN. We head up to Arnesen's Rocky Point for our annual poker playing, cigar smoking, beer drinking, ice fishing guys weekend. I'm the only guy from Texas in the group, the rest are from MN, WI.

Well, if my in-laws **** out again next year, I'm crashing your party. It sucked not going this year. I'll even bring the Asbach.

Thank you.

Burbot are awesome boiled and dipped in rendered butter!

Just like lobster and super fun to catch while ice fishing!

I CAN"T WAIT for ICE!

We haven't had a freeze over for years here .

Hrmpp. I had to break some ice yesterday to give the dog a drink out of the lake. Very soon I won't be able to do that.

I'm hoping to get some perch through the ice this year- that's one of my favorites.

You can rake the perch in at Little Bay de Noc! We take a trip up there every other year or so and overnight so we can get the perch bite in the daytime and the burbot bite at night.

What a blast. Sleeper shanties are the way to go. :rockin:
