Walleye Fishing {Catch, Clean & Cook} The Great Lakes!

[@Duyner83]

Made it out there twice this year. Been following your channel for a couple years now and to see my friend Kirk fishing with you is awesome!!

[@IslandKey]

heck yea!! so cool

[@ronaldsmith1282]

Kelly gives so much positivity and information and is always a joy to watch. Thank you for that Kelly.

[@IslandKey]

Thank you very much!

[@pawshog]

Ok Awesome !!! Beautiful as always !!!! The Fish Looks Delicious !!!

[@silverlicious2086]

Kelly, I grew up on Lake Erie fishing Walleye. Just East of Toledo. Those fishing grounds are considered the Walleye capital of the world. Also Lake Erie perch. Lake Erie Walleye and Perch are some of my favorite tasting fish of all time. We've caught some monster Walleye drifting and casting 1-5 miles off shore. Nice to see that you enjoyed catching and eating these great tasting fish.

My stomping grounds. Davis Bessie nuclear plant and camp perry firing range.

[@georgeappleby6868]

I lived in Port Clinton for years and loved the walleye and perch.

[@silverlicious2086]

@@patricktennant1585 Yes I remember very clearly

[@silverlicious2086]

@@georgeappleby6868 We had a cottage on Parmen's Point Catawba Island/Cliffs and boats at Gem Beach Marina. There was no limit on Perch back then. Then changed to a limit of 50. Also had a boat at Turtle point. Straight out from shore about 1/2 mile and directly on top of mega schools of Walleye. 3-5 pounders the average and caught 10+ pounders very regularly. Needless to say we were in food comas often.

[@georgeappleby6868]

@@silverlicious2086 did you ever eat at Phil's Inn on Perry St. My wife's family owned it. The best Walleye fishing I ever did was fishing off ther dock at lakeside in the late fall. It was crazy that year.

[@Buddystemz]

Kelly in the northern states… love it. Wish i would have known I would have made i trip to finally meet this beauty. Walleye are some of the best fresh water fish you’ll ever eat besides cold water perch and bluegill.

[@jamessheets6604]

I went on a charter in Lake Erie and caught my first Walleye about 3 years ago. I loved every minute of it. They taste amazing!

[@carrieeasley3995]

When the White Bass run in the rivers in East Texas, you can dangle a bare hook above the water and they will jump up and onto the hook. A white spinner bait will tear them up.

[@aprilrobinson2818]

We love catching and eating walleye, we calm them pickerel up in Northern Ontario. Here in Canada, we dont have a minimum size for them, but we are only allowed 1 over 18 inches.

[@snickers1019]

On my way to Lake Erie for Walleye next week. Ive eaten hundreds if not thousands of White Bass. They are not as tasty as Walleye but I enjoy them. The bigger ones have more of a blood line and you can trim that away to remove the bitter taste. But just pan fry them and enjoy! Just like with salt water fish don't take everyone's word on taste, try them and decide for yourself.

[@paulderouen8566]

The Walleye will be one of the best fish you’ve even eaten. SOOO GOOD. Combination of crab & shrimp.

[@dustinalderson7106]

White bass make good fish tacos 🌮🎣

[@rgutomo8141]

Come and listen to the excitement my friend👍

[@billkaldem5099]

Those were were good sized white bass. Great fun to catch. Fillet and cut out the red stripe and fry up. Not bad eating

[@outlawjjsmith]

Kelly you won't believe what I am doing right now as I pulled up this video of you catching Walleye, I have two walleyes filets ready to go in the frying pan as I am writing this comment. We bought them from Publix yesterday, Love walleye sandwiches they are the best.

[@IslandKey]

haha that is awesome!!

[@jamesdean4742]

White bass make great, smoked fish dip! It’s not as good as king fish or sailfish but for freshwater it’s pretty damn good.

[@ronrobinson566]

Glad you got a chance to fish and eat walleye in Michigan from a michagander I watch your videos all the time. Love your content.

[@atv55803]

hey your getting a taste of the best fresh water fish too eat ever,, I'm proud of you venturing up north where the men are men and the sheep stay nervous lol🤣🤣🤣 and the fish taste spectacular

[@jerryallen1768]

Awesome. Walleye is one of my favorites to eat. Looked like a good day.

[@matthewschleicher9419]

I go to Lake Erie in July probably catch 100 walleyes going for 2 weeks can’t wait

[@arcticgummibear4500]

my son caught a 26" walleye at cochiti lake in NM and we cooked it and it was the best tasting fish I'd every eaten.

Kelly you should visit the great lakes when it is warmer.

[@errollleggo447]

Had Walleye fish and chips before. I think it is my favourite fish to eat.

[@hendersonjim2657]

Walleye is my favorite fish for eating...so far. Being from Minnesota, I miss fishing Lake Superior. So busy. Enjoy the great White north adventures

[@jim242]

Never been much of a big walleye fan I love Lake Erie yellow perch my family has had a cottage on South Bass for 40 years most people know it as Put in Bay cottage is just down the road from The Crews Nest we raced sailboats all around the Great Lakes and once we were grown and out of the house dad sold the sailboat and bought a Lyman we fished the heck out of that great to see some Great Lakes fishing first time visiting the site and I wish you well

[@adamhackman2089]

Kelly I’m a huge fan! I always dream of fishing in some of the locations i travel with you on your channel. My heart skipped a beat when I saw the title of this video. I live in Indiana and fish the exact area you guys were fishing 4 to 5 times a year. So refreshing to see you fishing my stomping grounds!

[@IslandKey]

That is so cool!

[@royandersen903]

Come fish and dive the st lawerence near clayton ny!!!! We have great walleye fishing and some of the biggest smallmouth too!!! The water is crystal clear!!!!

Welcome to Michigan Kelly. I'm in Howell Michigan. I hope you enjoyed your stay

[@raprock5000]

You will love the walleye 😋 Kelly.

[@carolmiland9665]

It is true..you learned something new today. Can't wait to see you try and cut salt water fish the way Capt. Kirk did with pulling the fillets apaet. So cool

[@NathanJensen-xs8nw]

Walleye the king of fish in the Midwest!!

[@freewayrick1]

So glad you found Michigan

[@honest-sam536]

Happy to see you in the upper midwest! Wish it had been warmer for you.

[@zebedeemadness2672]

In Britian we have a close relative called a Zander also Pike-perch (Sander luciopercain), Walleye being (Sander vitreus), they aren't native to Britian being introduced from mainland Europe in 1878 and spred from ther, for a freshwater fish they have very nice white meat.

[@steveherrerabeatzchannel4519]

Chances are slim to none you’ll see this but your videos are therapy to me 😅 👍🏽

[@bradfaulds7697]

That’s My favourite fish to eat grew up on lake of the woods went fishing for walleye all the time

Great video Kelly! 💕

Welcome to the city

[@danmacdonald4494]

white bass are good eating. Most people in Michigan throw them back because the skin and scales are really touch .You have to sharpen your knife after about three fish

[@kcswan88]

I grew up in Michigan and fished Walleyes and White Bass. I live in California now, but I truly miss catching and eating them.

[@predatorsolutionsofmichigan]

Thanks for visiting us and enjoying what our waters have to offer.

[@georgeprietz4424]

Walleyes are so good breaded!!! And So many other ways!

Hi Kelly thanks for video

[@michaelhaines9172]

Wow, talk about coincidence. I’m leaving Ohio Friday to go to Michigan to fish for Walleye. 🙂

[@songyang7402]

White Bass are delicacies, a lot of people are missing out as their meat is flaky. Perfect for fish taco's, or steamed with lemon grass, gralic, and some thai chilis. Walleyes are amazing too!

[@iggiemoua3495]

Agree white bass is one of my favorites fish to eat

[@gregbrown5556]

White bass/sand bass if fabulous table fare.

[@arthurledezma9003]

Those drone shots!!! They are so clear and colorful! Picture postcard perfect! White bass? Only tried once…too bland. I hear a lot about walleyes and word is they have them here in CA…somewhere. Gonna have to try them. Sautéed, fried or blackened! Cool peel trick the Capt’n had there too! Hadn’t seen that myself. AND the best part is…had I not been watching Kelly Young I probably never would have! Watch n learn! Thank you so, so much Kelly! Love you! Safe flight back to Florida!!

[@IslandKey]

Thank you!

[@calvinlapage8610]

White bass are excellent eating. They are right up there with walleye, pike, crappie and all the others. Take care of your fish and they will be delicious. I've eaten them and walleye,no difference if you know how to cook them

[@DelventhalJohn-ct2ts]

Love you Kelly! Be safe ❤

[@TheCharlieHunter]

Kelly next time you come to Michigan come up to Northern Michigan! Frankfort, Lealand (Fish Town), Traverse City, Charlevoix, Petoskey. You haven't been to Michigan if you haven't been to these places trust me! Great fishing towns with tons of Beauty and tons to do!

[@stevedockery3534]

Loved the video Kelly. I use to catch stripe bass back home and the whole family loved them. Sometimes we would catch 30,40, & 50 lbers. But we called them hybrid bass. I'm sure you had lots of fun catching the stripe bass and walleyes. Take care girl.

[@garysuper5338]

Glad you made it to the Great Lakes Kelly. Walleye is hard to beat except yellow perch.

[@ricksimon277]

I've never eaten white bass, but I did eat stripers, which look very much like white bass and the striper was wonderful tasting. So, I would definitely try eating those white bass.

You really inspire me. Continue to keep well and be safe and stay beautiful. Love you lots. Visit Trinidad soon

I had white bass for dinner tonight. They are delicious here in Wisconsin on the Winnebago system. We also always peel the lateral line out by hand on Walleye.

[@greatlakesfishingguy3227]

Love that series. I have fished each place you fished and had great success like you did.

[@IslandKey]

Thank you! it was a lot of fun

[@igobygio]

Weird fact.....That location is the ONLY place in North America where you have to travel SOUTH to enter Canada (windsor). Need to get up and catch Muskie on Lake St. Clair....water is Bahamian blue

[@RandomJ2023]

Interesting fact thanks!

Also, Detroit is further east than Atlanta

From land, not from the water tho

White bass are good to eat. The important thing is to trim out the bloodline. I usually make white bass tacos.

[@wenfritsch4647]

Kelly, you need to get to Lake Michigan for salmon, whitefish and lake trout

[@dennyo7798]

@KellyYoung We call the fish cleaning technique "Zipping". Also jugging from the weather when you were there may have been April? I was on the south shore at that time catching 22" to 28" ers.

[@heresjohnny5649]

Kelly, I was just there June 2nd and was out on the water for a few days. My first time fishing Walleye. We trolled and all of us caught our limit within a few hours every time we went out. I found that more fun and exciting because you are always moving. I don't like to eat fish, but love to catch them. I had Walleye fried in peanut oil and loved every bite. Thanks for the awesome content!

[@ericresh3268]

When you vertical jig correctly in the river you are constantly floating down the river matching your speed to the current.

[@PatrickC63]

I’m happy to see that you made it up here! The walleye is a fish that anglers come from all over to catch and eat. Very mild white meat! You were right in the areas that I fish a lot. St Clair is one of the best smallmouth fisheries in the country. By the looks of the weather you were here just prior to them moving up from the deep to start their spawning. Good stuff 🙏🏻

[@WillE454]

Looks like that was a fun trip Kelly

[@klayd2929]

As a WI guy who wants to move down south, the cold fresh water will be something I'll miss for sure

[@jeffbarnz4886]

White bass are great eating. We catch ‘em in Lake Erie and are awesome pan fried with flour or deep fried with batter.

don't forget the white tail!

[@tedanderson463]

I just googled ..... Are white bass good eating..... It's white flaky meat that resembles walleye and you cook them the same way... they have excellent flavor it said.... It depends upon who caught the fish iced the fish cleaned the fish.. a good sportsman takes good care of their game meat... The sportsman prepares the fish properly and Cooks it when it's fresh or freezes it properly...

[@martys4814]

Catch and release….keep the sport alive…..

[@derrinlipa5927]

One of the best eating fish up North
