For best results, ensure the walleye fillets are very cold before grinding or chopping. This will help the cakes hold their shape. Do not overcrowd the skillet when cooking the walleye cakes, as this will lower the temperature of the pan and result in soggy cakes. Serve immediately with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice and your favorite tartar sauce or aioli. These walleye cakes can be prepared ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours before cooking.
