The saugeye (Sander canadensis × vitreus) is a hybrid freshwater fish of walleye and sauger of the family Percidae.

The color of saugeye varies between olive green to gold but most individuals exhibit distinct dark saddles extending across the body.

[1] Additionally, saugeye exhibit distinct streaks across the dorsal fin that frequently have one to two rows of spots along the base.

[3][4] In many cases, saugeye are stocked to utilize abundant gizzard shad,[4] a prey item they readily consume.

[3] Saugeye are raised in hatcheries and stocked in the U.S. to provide an additional fishery opportunity for recreational anglers in reservoirs, rivers, and tailwaters.
