Why ?
Message:
Hi, Why is it that pretty much only here in Ct. fisherman don't keep Pike to eat ! Pike is one of the sweetest flavorable white fish to eat. thumbup In Mass., Vt. NH, and NY they keep them to eat ! Out in the Mid-west they spear them in dark houses and eat them. In Maine they "HATE" them and leave them on the ice as coyote or eagle food ! Me ! -> I'll keep a legal size Pike or large Pikerel to eat ! There are some videos on youtube on how to fillet them ! Just as good if not better then a Cod loin ! Plus some recipes on how to make poor man's lobster out of Pike ! SeaDog1 :mrgreen:

pike eating

My buddy caught and ate one and told me it tasted awful. Could it be that they taste not as good in the summer, or does he just not know how to cook? If the latter's the case, send me a recipe to try. I'm thinking about tasting my first pike. Why not keep one, they live short lives here in CT anyways. 8 years here as opposed to 25 up north. The monsters people pull out probably only got a couple more years to live anyways. Lucky for us they grow much faster here.
