I'm pretty sure I'm wrong, but hey, I graduated with honors on guessing alone.

To easy....perch. That's a 6" blade on that knife, that puts the perch in the 12-13" mark..ie. A nice one. Can't be pike cause the Filleting does not have the length it needs besides it would not be a nice one, or mentioning within 2 hours of Calgary, any other species would also be to small to mention..so perch it is! Or not...but i'm all in regardless!
BTW...cool post idea. Well done!

Key word being "keeper" and with respect to the length of the knife.

Walleye - I would have guessed except its too small to be legal under most circumstances so I gotta go with Jumbo Perch.
Definitely not a trout or whitefish ........
GOTTA BE A JUMBO PERCH

I don't catch nor keep allot of whites but it looks exactly like a small walleye fillet (the shape and the red meat along the center-line) - perch tend to be very similar in form as both are species of the same family.
The discolored meat, when I've filleted a white, is more brownish and the meat a different "whiter" shade from what I remember.
Also the shape, chest cavity etc.... definitely look like a perch/walleye family.
Just a theory I guess ......
If that knife is over 12" tip to butt - the perch was 14" - so a SUPER JUMBO HUMPY.
A couple of the places BEEGUY likes to hide and fish also hold some extremely large perch but nobody targets them. I have a theory about that too.
If I'm correct - I'm looking cool - If I'm wrong on both accounts then life goes on.
