Wally = Walleye
Gator = Northern Pike
Whitie = Lake Whitefish
Dogfish = Bowfin
Heard another fisherman refer to "sewer trout" several times last year, but not sure what he meant, maybe white suckers
A quick google leads me to belive that a sewer trout is a big turd. Like a reference to nuisance fish.
Pretty sure Carp are reffered to as sewer trout. Also for smallies, Bass fishermen commonly refer to them as footballs.
