called the This fish has so many names that it must be called by its official name The statement was made that it is an AMERICAN name for one of OUR fish This Is not true as the Walleye is native to a great many waters and the name Walleye is universal It has been designated as the official name for the bellow Picker a I or Pike Perch or or Golden perch or a great many other names including Yellow
