Walleyes are largely olive and gold in color. The dorsal side of a walleye is olive, grading into a golden hue on the flanks. The olive/gold pattern is broken up by five darker saddles that extend to the upper sides. The colour shades to white on the belly. The mouth of a walleye is large and is armed with many sharp teeth. The first dorsal and anal fins are spinous as is the operculum.

Bragging may not bring happiness, but no man having caught a large fish goes home through an alley.

RE:Walleye
Walleye and sauger are sometimes confused. Walleye have a distinct white tip on the lower edge of their tail fin. A black section can b found on the trailing edge of their dorsal fin at the base. A sauger has no white tip and it has black spots on its dorsal fin. The sauger usually is also darker in color.
