Walleyed pike is excellent! I can get it right here in the restaurant 4 blocks from the house. It's the only place I've found it west of Minnesota and Wisconsin.
Love lion fish too - a true delicacy. Wish more would discover it to help curb the infestation in the Caribbean.
Walleye, or pickerel as they call it in Canada, is a member of the pike/perch family, Though they are closer in flavor to a perch, than a pike. It's also much easier to remove the bones when filleting them. Walleye hafe a mild and wonderful flavor, probably second only to Great Lakes Whitefish (a member of the trout family, very mild and yummy) in Michigan, Wisconsin, and Minnesota. Walleye tournaments abound.
I have two fish that are tied for first place - Fresh, wild Eastern Brook Trout, and Swordfish. Rainbow Trout comes in a very close second, as it is nearly indistinguishable in flavor and texture to the brookie.
But I haven't met a fish or clam, or muscle that I didn't like. Oops, hold the phone, I had catfish from the Mississippi River that tasted of mud to me. But catfish out of Lake Superior taste fine.
