I still don't undestand why burbot should be treated any different than any other game fish, I assume they have other "by catch" walleyes, pike they wouldn't just let it rot on ice. Is there a limit on how much they can "by catch" the burbot?
There just is no commercial market for them(not sure why). They are currently not considered a "game fish" so it is different when it come to by catch for walleye/pike.
