The walleye or yellow pickerel or pickerel (Sander vitreus vitreus, formerly Stizostedion vitreum vitreum) is a freshwater perciform fish native to most of Canada and to the northern United States. It is a North American close relative of the European pikeperch. It is sometimes incorrectly called pickerel, its true name being walleye. Pickerel is actually a species of pike called the chain pickerel. The walleye is sometimes also called the yellow walleye to distinguish it from the blue walleye. Walleyes grow to about 75 cm in length, and weigh up to about 7 kg. Since walleyes have excellent visual acuity under low illumination levels, they tend to feed more extensively at dawn and dusk, on cloudy or overcast days and under choppy conditions when light penetration into the water column is disrupted. Although anglers interpret this as light avoidance, it is merely an expression of the walleye's competitive advantage over its prey under those conditions. Similarly, in darkly stained or turbid waters, walleye tend to feed throughout the day.
Camp
Perry is a National Guard training facility located on the shore of Lake Erie
in northern Ohio near Port Clinton. In addition to its regular mission as a military
training base, Camp Perry also boasts the largest outdoor rifle range in the world.
The firing is done in the direction of the open water of the lake, just beyond
an earthen berm and the targets. Guard boats of the Ohio Naval Militia warn pleasure
craft to avoid the impact area where fired bullets land. Violating this warning
may result in the confiscation of pleasure craft.
