Pike pictures

[68isgr8]

Hey guys, thought I'd share a couple pictures of the fish my hubby and his buddies caught yesterday. The 2nd picture shows our buddy holding a 44" long pike that weighed in @ 25 lbs. 10 oz. These fish were caught just outside of St. Maries, Idaho-about an hours drive from where I live. They're very yummy.....mmmmmm.

Used to ice fish for pike quite often, once upon a time.. many years ago.

Fresh winter pike is good eatin indeed.

What do you use for bait, and won't it melt when you try to fry it?:huh:

:eek2ang! Those are almost as big as me! I like flounder and a good blackened tuna steak, but I've never had pike before. I used to go flounder fishing when I lived at the beach. Used to catch 'em down at the Indian River Inlet just north of Fenwick Island, DE. I kinda miss that.

Nice! I love to ice fish. We usually fish for pike when we go. The hardest part about those fish is flaying out the y-bones but once you learn how it’s not that difficult. Buy the way my buddies and I call them “Snot rockets”.

they use herring or squawfish. that day the guys had better luck using squawfish.

To me pike taste similar to bass, but much better! We like to cook them in 'shake & bake'.

I dip them in egg and then roll them in crushed salted crackers and fry them in butter. Makes me want some now. :xl:

I roll them in egg and then in Italian bread crumbs and garlicand then fry it. Some times I just boil it like cod, it is also good baked in tomato soup. Some times I chop up some onions, green peppers, and some pre cooked bacon. Put it in aluminum foil with some garlic and butter and cook it on the grill. Yes I do that in the winter. I use it all year.

winter grill use is a necessity.... when you have a grill of course....
