George Dotty Posted August 28, 2012 Posted August 28, 2012 I love to fish for saugeye and it is pretty big in Ohio where I am from. Do you think the popularity will ever catch up with walleye Quote
Super User Dwight Hottle Posted August 29, 2012 Super User Posted August 29, 2012 No. Walleye have such a larger range compared to saugeye it will never happen. Quote

Super User MarkH024 Posted August 29, 2012 Super User Posted August 29, 2012 I love to fish for saugeye and it is pretty big in Ohio where I am from. Do you think the popularity will ever catch up with walleye Is there any distinctive differences from the two species, other than appearance? I was under the impression that the fish were pretty identical. I've caught plenty of walleye, but never a Saugeye/Sauger. I think a good majority of recreational fishermen probably do not even know the difference between them. For the million saugeye they stock, I'd be willing to bet they put five times as many walleye fry in the waters to that number. Walleye are such popular game fish and table fare. So I'd have to say NO, as far as the subject goes. Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted September 1, 2012 Global Moderator Posted September 1, 2012 Another thing working against the saugeye is they don't get as big. Quote
