Went out yesterday and caught some nice walleye. One of my favorites are walleye cheeks. Sautéed in butter and garlic or cooked in bacon fat with a coating of flour makes a pretty good little appetizer. Texture is firmer and reminds me of eating scallops.

Yummmm, those are the BEST part of a Walleye, and most people don't even know about them.

Cheek cheeks, or butt cheeks?

Same goes for salmon and halibut!

Those look tasty! I've had halibut, lingcod, salmon, and sturgeon cheeks, but never walleye! Will have to try that next time I get some walleye!
