Where are all of the fish board biologists.....lol? I'd send a picture in to SRD just to find out what it was (and let us know), if for nothing else.
I found this on the net:
"The walleye is host to a wide variety of parasites. Some of these include
protozoans, trematodes, cestodes, nematodes, acanthocephalans, leeches, molluscs and crustaceans. In certain areas of Saskatchewan and Alberta walleye are infected with a broad tapeworm (Diphyllobothrium latum)."
They look more like a worm (acanthocephalans?) to me than a leech.
Definitively interesting...........thanks for posting.
