    I just made this and it tastes wonderful. I substituted yogurt for the heavy cream and it didn't take away from the flavor at all. Very happy with this dish. Thanks for posting.

    Waleye is my all time favorite freshwater fish. Bluegills a close second. This recipe sounds awesome. The wild rice idea is perfect. I must try this one.
