Here at Lawrence Bay Lodge, one of our favorite fish to fry has got to be walleye! Check out these delectable, savory dishes we’ve gathered for you to prepare with the premier walleye you’ll catch during your visit to Saskatchewan!

Add a tempting twist to a traditional fried fish fillet with a sweet honey glaze! This enticing recipe is easy to prepare—just make the coating, lather up your walleye, and fry it up in the skillet. It’ll be ready to go in about 15 minutes! Start by preparing a simple egg and honey mixture to dip the fillets, then coat the glazed fish with a flavorful combination of crushed saltines, flour, salt and pepper. Drizzle the finished walleye in honey and enjoy!
2.) Irish Fish Pie
