Several years ago (well over 25) I read an article in OOD Magazine on how to cut out and cooking "The Pecks" (now called Walleye Wings and also known as Chin & Fins, Bat Wings and Rabbit Ears). I had a copy of that article and showed it to numerous other Walleye Fishermen over the years to get others eating this delicious part of the fish as I have been doing since reading that article. It’s a shame how much of The Pecks (Walleye Wings) go to waste each year when fishermen could be enjoying this part along with the Cheeks.
I learned from that article to make the “V” cut, which includes both Ventral Fins as shown in these two YouTube Videos.
Walleye Fillet, Walleye Cheek and Wings. Maximum Limit Fishing
How to fillet a Walleye and get all the meat! Cheeks, wings and fillets, Plus leave rib cage behind
Recently, I came across another Video where the whole Breast Plate is cut out, which I will be doing this upcoming Lake Erie Walleye Season.

Dont toss out the Walleye breast bone meat called Walleye wings. Its easy to remove and has lots of prime meat.
Here is a Link to an excellent Article done by Blogger Mark Schram who is an avid tournament fisherman from Wisconsin. In his Article “WALLEYE WINGS” it has a bit of History, Cooking Methods and more along with a Picture of Deep Fried Walleye Wings.

Jul 16, 2014 - For years, anglers have known about the delicacy of walleye cheeks, but are now learning of the new rage of walleye wings. What? Walleyes…
I do hope more Walleye fishermen will be enjoying their Wings this upcoming Walleye season.
