E mail me a bowl of that stuff. Has anyone had Poor Mans Lobster using Pike? I've had it, it wasn't Lobster but it was good. I wasn't there when they made it. Boiled the Pike in copious amounts of Sea Salt then those cubes are drained dried then dipped in melted butter. How does it not fall apart boiling that long?

 

edit: tell your story, you have many friends here that care and would want to know.

Ill get around to it when im not in crazy amounts of pain.

Bedtime now

Sounds amazing bud! Ill have to try for sure!

My favorite is to chunk up the pike fillets.

Do a big pot of fish stock or chicken stock.

Add celery, carrots, potatoes, onion, garlic.

Cook that low and slow with the seasoning of your choice.

I use coarse salt, pepper, chive, garlic salt, garlic and onion powder, tumeric, chilli flake, parsley

Once the stock is is gtg , melt in 1/2 bar of butter.

Then at the end add pike for about 5-6 minutes.

Serve with a side of sourdough or cornbread, or chiabatta

We call it pike boil

Nothing wrong with eating Pike as many here agree. They are a solid fish. I make a tomato pasta sauce with pike and Brandy. Simple toasted garlic on EVO, in go the fillets and sear on each side, a splash of Brandy, some in the pan too, chopped plum tomatoes, not pureed, finish with Parm cheese, lots of it, fresh Basil and Parsley. Of course the Pike will break up, you want that. Pour on any pasta, more cheese and drizzle with EVO. Best with a tube pasta so all the goodies get in the pasta. A new fave of ours is Pennoni lishe (no lines), 1/2 way between Penne and Rigatoni.

 

M2B2 bring up the cooking thread so I don't hi jack anymore threads.

No you cannot eat one fish then replace it later.

Its daily limit. If you got your limit thats all you can keep. Ie you cant go drop em off at home and catch another limit later that day.

You can switch species however.

I started off keeping pike because my family is huge and obviously 4 walleye isnt gonna feed us. So Id keep 2 or so northerns to add to the amount.

But now I actually prefer the northern and c&r most walleyes. The wife and kids dont mind one bit either.

Aecon was basically booted from the site due to violations of the regs.

That and I was shocked at how many of their employees acted. Nothing like welding "tims a good dresser" to the structure of the mill.

They were also notorius for ignoring all road signs on site.

Anyhow yes, back to fishing lol

Nope, hasnt changed one bit!

My rant is pretty silly, but id like to know why this happened.

I like to bring snap peas to work as a snack. They come in a lil 250g or so bag. Normal cost was 1.99, now its 8.99?

8.99 for a handfull of snap peas??? I guess they'll just spoul because NOBODY is buying at that price

I hate these???

Yep social media sure helps!

I hope all is well and she is located safe and sound.

M2B2, you win the spelling bee.

I was curious because Aecon "was" working at New Gold mine(where I work) till they got the steeltoe.

Johnny, when you mentioned Aacon, is that the actual name? Or is it Aecon?

Just curious

Guy kept a limit of pike for frig sakes ???

Settle down OFC, you get angry when your hungry???

^^^^ missing the back fillet

There are some great videos if you google to see how to clean and remove Y bones. I never have bones in the pike fillets I eat. My wife would have my head if she found a bone.

Youtube pike 5 fillet method

Easy way no bones and lotsa meat

Perfect size for eats by the look of it!

Nice haul dood!

Im keeping more and more pike these days

Braid is a no no outside the hut.

These days I like nanofil on the ice with a fluoro leader

A lovely package arrived today from some dood named bigugli?????

Thank you very much!!!! Great work and fantastic donation!

OK I am back at home again after a few months on the road (hunting and fishing my way to the West Coast and back).
