Is that what you're talking about? They are so sweet and delicious. |
That's the ones. Same family as walleye and pickerel. All very mild, even cooked with the skin on they don't have a strong fish taste. Being from MI I've been eating them my whole life. There are good ocean fish, halibut is one of my favorites, but I really prefer lake fish.
