Some states do not allow spearing for pike, but you are allowed to spear "trash fish". Check w/ your local Department of Fish and Game, they can steer you in the right direction.

The mess of fish in the picture were taken from a lake in South-Central Alaska, where they are non-native, and were illegally introduced. There is no limit on pike there and ADF&G encourages removal of as many as possible, but they must be used and not wasted. They are discussing rotenone as a measure to reduce non-native populations, and already have used it on some lakes in the Anchorage Metro area, now that is a waste. I can assure you, all of the fish pictured were enjoyed after being dipped in beer batter and a hot oil bath :)
