Is there a limit to how many heads you can turn in for the program? I can only find where it says $10 Each.

Illegally introduced in Montana is what I've heard. I heard the tribe might be shutting down the bounty program though.

I would compare them to walleye.  Have to debone them though.  Which I learned to as a kid.  Loved catching northern.

i got some pike through the ice back in my college days in montana, I thought they were delicious, really flaky white meat,  everyone complained about the Y bones or some specific bones to watch out for, The were distinct enough bones that they were not an issue to remove, way easier than a hatchery trout people rave about. I always seem to end up with a few bones in the food if i eat a rainbow, no matter how carefull i am

I'm pretty sure anytime the state introduces them as a predator to control another fish's population, they introduce Tiger musky instead. Tiger musky a cross between northern pike and Musky I think, and are sterile and won't reproduce so they don't have to worry about the predator population getting out of control.

Similarly, sterile grass carp are introduced into some lakes to help manage aquatic plants.
