I am Not trying to preach, and I do NOT want to start a C&R debate.......

That being said......

Most fisheries benefit from having some smaller pike harvested. Check out the In-Fisherman Ice fishing guide, they have a pickled pike recipe in there that is fantastic. If you have never tried pickled pike, you owe it to yourself. ;D

Pray for cold!!!! :'(

Pickling dissolves the Y-bones in smaller pike. Those little buggers sure do have plenty of bones. ;D
