Saskatchewan’s official fish is the walleye. In 2005, Saskatchewan Environment held a provincial fish emblem contest. Around 10,000 entries were received at that time and walleye was the overwhelming choice.

A 13.3 pound walleye was caught by a spear fisherman north of Lake Diefenbaker on the South Saskatchewan River and recognized by the International Underwater Spearfishing Association as a record.
