Although a European delicacy, burbot, a freshwater cod, is regarded as junk fish by many in the U.S. It has a slimy, eel-like appearance that many find repugnant. Some call them “lawyers”, eelpout, and lingcod. Finns call them made (MA-day) or matikka. Burbot season is from mid-December to the end of January. Most fishers trap burbot as they swim upstream to spawn. Others jig through the ice. A large hole is cut in the ice for a trap and it is checked daily. A trap can get so full that two men can hardly pull it out of the river.
