Burbot - The Complete Anglervale Fishing Guide (PDF)

The freshwater cod that spawns under the ice - how to find, catch, handle, and cook winter's strangest and tastiest fish.

Here is the honest pitch: the burbot is not a glamour fish, and chasing it means fishing at uncomfortable hours in harsh conditions. But it is a willing biter once you find it, it fights with a powerful, twisting, eel-like pull, it grows large, and - surprising almost every first-timer - it is genuinely excellent eating. Poached in butter it is sweet enough that people call it "poor man's lobster." This guide covers what is real about burbot fishing: how to locate them, the tackle and baits that actually work, how to handle a slick, coiling fish, and how to turn it into one of the best meals to come off the ice.
