That a $10 reward in north Stevens county! If I ever catch a good sized one I would like to try canning a little of it, the bones will dissipate too.
$5 is a lot of money if you ain't got it

Was born and raised in up state NY.
Lots of good pike fishing back there although I preferred Muskie hunting my self.
And yes,wire leaders are a must.
And keep hands away from the mouth.
That was the worst part of moving out here,we used live bait to fish for them.
Had to learn how to fish all over again. :)

Pretty cool. Never fished for one though. My business partner is from Wisconsin and he is trying to get me more into Walleye, Pike and Crappie over trout and salmon
The mountains are calling and I must go

I was actually fishing for bass. And hooked into him. Yesterday I went out and bought larger swim baits to target pike and all I caught was bass and sun fish😂. Still had a good time.

Pike are right up there with walleye for taste to me.  Caught quite a few of them growing up in NE Minnesota.  Deboning is super easy.  All can say as for getting rid of them is good luck.  Seen a lake in CA get poison many times and they are still there.
