Been wanting one of those for quite some time. I’d love to know how it tasted as well.

Nothern pike to me is right up there with walleye in taste.  Just have to know how to filler them.  Lots of bones.  My mom and aunt taught me how to debone them.  Fried is always the best just chunk out the fillet after you have deboned it.  Nice pike.

I've eaten them before and love them..right up there with walleye. I'm thinking about starting up my campfire and use my cast iron skillet to fry them up as a "Shore Lunch" GOTTA GET THE BONES OUT.  You Tube University has lots of videos on how to get the bones out

What Russ said (from a midwesterner).  If you know what you're doing, they can be filleted with no bones left.  I've eaten hundreds of them.  They are great pickled too.
Look man, some times you just gotta roll the dice

Back in the NE, we used to pickle chunks of pike and it made the bones dissolve. Kind of like herring but better.

Us Midwestern folks will fry anything! I've had pike, gar, and even carp. Carp ribs cleaned and soaked and fried come out pretty good.

That one does have interesting markings. The tigers that I've caught had no spotting though, just very distinct vertical striping. I have seen some images of northerns with subtle striping patterns in their spotting, thats how this one appears to me anyway.

I sure miss catching Northerns. (Pike wasn't in our vocabulary in MN). They do look a bit different out here, as do the walleyes.
