Most places in the prairies, the Walleye they showed is called a Pickerel. The Pickerel they showed looks like a Pike, commonly called a Jack fish. Maybe down south or in the east they are opposite?

There is a difference in backbone, and of the fish called variously the CDN Pickerel, Yellow Pickerel, Walleye, or Dore in pq. fr. and that of the Pike/Muskie. We don't have Chain Pickerel in our waters. We would think that a miniature pike/muskie. The Pickerel is actually a member of the Perch family. The blue walleye of Lake Erie went extinct about 1985 when our wise government introduced rainbow smelt into the lake. It was also overfished. The pickerel has an eye that looks like it has cataracts. It's eyes reflect more, allowing it to see in low light. It lives in generally in clear waters, but likes to stay in the dark, in deep drop offs below the light penetrating depth. It nevertheless has an advantage in murky turbulent waters and will come to surface when the bottom is stirred up by waves. Some lakes that are completely opaque to us have plentiful Walleye as they can hunt in very murky water visually. Walleye are carnivores, so minnow, worms, crayfish should be bait. I have found sound lures effective in some waters, but completely useless in other areas. Obviously flashy spoons sound like a good idea too. I would think based on experience and some information that Walleye hunt by a combination of sound, light and smell, sometimes predominately using one method in certain waters. Sound lures work well often. Zander and Sauger are very similar fish in different ways. Sauger looks the same, and Zander tastes the same. The Yellow Pickerel can get big, to 25 lbs, although that is a record size. 31 inches in length is not that uncommon. P.S. Pike and Muskellunge, while the may mate produce sterile offspring. Largest Muskie I have seen was 72 inches and 110 lbs, caught in a Lake I once lived on. This is also a Walleye
