Wisdom T he Walleye, the highly esteemed member of the perch family, gets its name from the large eye with its light-reflecting retina which gives the fish its walleyed appearance. This fish is probably the most economically valuable species in Canada's inland waters. It is a major commercial and sport fish in Ontario and the Prairie Provinces, and a major sport fish in Quebec. An angler survey in Ontario showed that the walleye was the game species most often fished and was the second in abundance in anglers' catches. The perch family is a large one, with about 140 species in North America alone.
