We always called things like that “Minnesota Walleye”. This special category of fish was reserved for certain fish such as sheepshead, carp, shiners, mooneyes, and so on. We were also very careful only to loudly proclaim we had caught a dandy minnesota walleye when we knew we were in the company of ‘sotans with a sense of humor. Should you be reading this and are a sotan with no sense of humor, I meant to say that the above pictured fish is an Iowan walleye.
