In the interest of keeping everyone hungry, from looking at the pics of salmon eggs on the coldwater forum, here are a few pics of my fried eye's..eyes from a recent trip I took with TTJLN & Wormslayer (http://northwestfishing.info/showthread.php?t=946)...

No just some walleye and tator tots we cookered up here bout a week ago, no big deal, but I am still willing to bet that these photos can make you hungry. I should know I just edited them, and Chrissy suggested we have some fried walleye for dinner....I still have some...:rolleyes:

Using the power of the internet we found out how to fixer up these here walleyes all good and crispy like!

Fillet them up and unzip the y bone then rinser then off in the collander. No bones and no fatty area left. Just good clean ready to fry eye :p

Whip up some chicken eggs with salt & pepper and throw the eyes in for a swim! Then roll em throught a mix of unbleached flower and shake & bake! No for real! Kinda like being tarred up & feathered (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tarring_and_feathering) :D

Not sure, I am also a big fan of cod and rockfish...IM thinking the walleye is very much like rockfish, but cod is hard to beat :p Anything goes for breakfast at 2:oo PM? :eek:

I was just wondering cause rockfish is sure good and everything including the fat on those filets looks like like rockfish!
Didn't have a chance between chores to cook this morning so food had to wait till almost 3 haha. Hash browns and bacon!

Did someone say cod? It's one of my favorites. I actually prefer Cod over Halibut.

Oh yes greenlings I asume you mean are the best I love how their meat can be all different color from green to blue and pink to purple. I think just depends on what they have eaten the most of. As for eyes you can have 'em I can't get past the smell to get to the meat.
