Idk. Is that a saugeye?
I have no idea. Is a saugeye a cross between a sauger and a walleye?
I would be shocked if there was enough of either where I caught it for them to crossbreed.

It looks like a small walleye to me. It's definitely not a sauger but don't think it's a saugeye either.
I've had 3 opinions counting yours so far and all were walleye.TN Larry":3nowym3s said:

Walleye saugeye usually have saddles.
I guess it's unanimous. I caught it on a shaky head in a Mississippi river oxbow at Memphis. Never knew they were in there. I've been fishing the river for 40 years and never even heard of someone catching a walleye.

Geez! :mrgreen: That's almost like me catching a rainbow trout in Reelfoot Lake!
I would speculate it washed in from the far north, or else some fishermen caught some a little farther east, and simply released them where you were fishing? Still amazing they would survive very long there, but then the summer hasn't heated up fully yet.

It is a walleye. Saugeye have markings on them like sauger.
