I talked to a guy , I was telling him that I don't keep Pike that are less then 8lbs because after you take the Y bone out of smaller pike you just don't have enough meat (IMO) so I put them back and let them grow.Well this fellow told me that he just puts the whole fillet (with Y bones still in , not the rib cage) in a food proccessor and blams em for about 3 or 4 minutes. He said it turns the fillets into mush and then he adds 1 egg and then makes little patties, puts bread crumbs on them and throws them in the deep fryer. He said they are great and he will never do the Y bone cut again. I plan on trying this has anyone else ever done this?
ido the same thing, except i make them the size of a burger and make a sandwich put a little cocktail or tartar sauce on. ex. eating and no worry about bones, just process them enough to get all the bones ground up
