Moffett is a fresh water lake. The fish caught there are called

Perch, or at least that is what we called them. They could get quite
large
(for a perch) and were very tasty. Only problem was that the meat was
blue,
about the color of the sky. When it was cooked, the meat turned
white. What
would cause this meat to be blue?

I'm not sure what food it is, but Ling Cod have a tendancy to be a pale
blue too. Any idea what these perch ate? Were there any other fish in
the lake? Was it pure fresh water, or brackish?
