Walleye still has its eggs

I caught a couple of walleye today and noticed one of them (18") still had her eggs. I have never seen this before. I know what bluegill eggs look like but the walleye eggs were gray not salmon colored. I have never heard of a walleye reabsorbing their eggs before. The lake was almost 70 degrees and it is already June. I am curious if others have seen this and if it is common.

It's not real common but not all that unusual to catch a female with eggs this time of the year. Some walleyes never lay their eggs for whatever reason and their body does reabsorb them. It's totally natural.
