How to Take the Skin Off Walleye

Updated: Jul 22

I've tried taking the skin off before, but it ends up taking a lot of the meat with it. And leaving the skin on? No way, it just makes everything taste way too fishy!


So I learned a trick from the seafood truck sale guy at the local grocery store. When the fish is still frozen (I let mine sit on the counter a little bit first to thaw just a little), bend/break a small end of the walleye and slowly peel back the skin. The key is to do it while it's frozen!!

Amazing. Easy. Satisfying... then YUM!
