I could tell which one was which because I read somewhere that Sheepshead are a little denser meat than Walleye.Ĭonclusion: When cooked the same it is very difficult to tell the difference between them and Walleye. 3 of my 4 friends guessed wrong on which fillet was Walleye. I put a fillet of the Walleye and Sheepshead on their plates with a little dip container with some fish and chip vinegar. After I fried them up in the pan I had 4 friends over to try them with me. I also made a batch of walleye that I caught that day as well for comparison purposes. When I got home I got my fry pan out and put the fillets in a bowl of milk and then battered them like I would Walleye (flour, lemon peper, and lawry's season salt). The small ones have almost no belly meat so it's not worth trying to get. I filleted them just like any other fish. They tend to get a little "soft" if not put on ice right away.
SHEEPSHEAD FISH MN FULL
After they were bled out I threw them into a cooler full of ice (don't worry the beer and pop were in a different cooler). I kept ones about 1-2# and put them on the stringer while gilling them so they can bleed out (their flesh is very bloody if you do not gill them). I caught about 120 of them in the 4 hours out fishing and decided to keep a few (about 15) to try to eat. Here in MN they are considered rough fish and nobody wants to eat them even though they are over populated in the rivers despite having no limit to how many you can keep.
