Banded Walleyes...like a duck band

[corny13]

In ND and SD if you fish Lake Oahe you might get lucky enough to catch a walleye with a band in its lip...good to add to your duck band collection...I havent been that luck yet but have a friend that has caught 2..

Just like duck bands they are studying walleye migration and what percent are harvested...

  :happy1:cool read. it would be interesting to see some results of that study to see how far some of those fish have traveled.
