rbaquial Posted January 27, 2009 Report Posted January 27, 2009 LOL!! That'd be an interesting taste!
rbaquial Posted January 28, 2009 Report Posted January 28, 2009 Wait.... Did that pike have that DUCK as a MEAL?! or... are you proposing a PIKE-DUCKEN type meal?
misfish Posted January 28, 2009 Report Posted January 28, 2009 Thats just ducky. Im working on a recipe right now.I,ll get back to ya on this. HAHAHAHA
walleyejigger Posted January 28, 2009 Report Posted January 28, 2009 i've seen this happen a few times, but they were smaller ducks, ducklings actually the food chain in action
Leecher Posted January 28, 2009 Report Posted January 28, 2009 Unbelievable.... I've heard of gators eating ducklings before..... but never seen one That duck looks like it's full grown..... what was the length of that pike? Thanks for sharing Steve
Abberz Posted January 28, 2009 Report Posted January 28, 2009 never mind just saw the duck head....wow thats pretty cool
misfish Posted January 28, 2009 Report Posted January 28, 2009 Ok I got one Recipe that is First ya all fillet the pike. No bones. Then you add some garlic and chives to a pan of EVO. Now place the pike in the hot pan and fry.5 minutes each side. Meat should be a nice white flaky texture. Now remove , smother with garlic butter. Now for the duck,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,Im still working on that one.................Throw it threw the window.LOL

camillj Posted January 28, 2009 Report Posted January 28, 2009 Ya dont see that everyday .. specially durig the hardwater season ... that must be the endangered sub-glaciel-diving-non-migrating species of duck !
steverowbotham Posted January 28, 2009 Author Report Posted January 28, 2009 Ya dont see that everyday .. specially durig the hardwater season ... that must be the endangered sub-glaciel-diving-non-migrating species of duck ! LOL. I didnt catch it, I had the pic sent to me today
Cudz Posted January 28, 2009 Report Posted January 28, 2009 LOL. I didnt catch it, I had the pic sent to me today Do you think it is legit Steve?
Zubris21 Posted January 28, 2009 Report Posted January 28, 2009 thats a wild picture. I would be really surprised to find that in a pike belly.
steverowbotham Posted January 28, 2009 Author Report Posted January 28, 2009 Do you think it is legit Steve? Hard to say... about 8 years ago on Dalrymple I watched a fish eat a duckling off the surface in the narrows... A whole duck, I would think its a good possibility.
johnnyb Posted January 28, 2009 Report Posted January 28, 2009 I hit a back lake for largies that has produced 3 bass with birds in their bellies....increase the size of the fish, the bird, it makes sense.
GBW Posted January 28, 2009 Report Posted January 28, 2009 (edited) That's how you know there are hungry pike and or musky around, when the ducks go missing... I have heard of this may times but never seen a pic as I would guess most fish to be big enough to eat a duck (no matter the size) would be full for a few days so decomp. would be worse then this. Either way I know it is possible (like a bass getting a frog) and that's a cool pic! Edited January 28, 2009 by GBW
fishinfool Posted January 28, 2009 Report Posted January 28, 2009 We have a cottage on Balsam Lake and every year my sister gets all mushy about feeding the ducks that have had babies. There are usually two or three groups of families with ten or more little ducklings following mom and dad. We would go up every weekend and each weekend the duckling count has gone down until there are only 3 or 4 left. I just don't have the heart to tell her where they are going to. Two summers ago I was fishing a back bay full of stumps one morning with my wife and I saw a small duck trying to take off from the water in the back of the bay, it was trying for all it had to get off the water but was a little too young or perhaps it was sick, directly behind it was a huge wake of a very large Musky that followed it about 30 yards around a bend and then I heard nothing. I told the wife but she just laughed and said "No Way" Wish I could have got that fish to bite. LOL
jwl Posted January 28, 2009 Report Posted January 28, 2009 (edited) mmmmm....smells like fish, tastes like chicken I have witnessed muskies taking ducklings off the water a few times while sitting around the boat club in Chippawa where the Welland River and Lyon's Creek meet at the mouth. Every season there are small famillies of ducks and ducklings milling about, if it's been quiet in there and not much boat traffic coming in and out I have seen for example a mother duck with 7-8 ducklings swimming about, then out of no where..a big SPLASH!!!!, the mom duck goes nuts and when things calm down 1 duckling is missing.

Jigger Posted January 29, 2009 Report Posted January 29, 2009 Good 'ole Pikled Duck. Don't see that too often.
Fishnfiend Posted January 29, 2009 Report Posted January 29, 2009 I have seen goslings get munched on Dalrymple. The only way to know if you have a fowl-eating fish is to check it's stomach contents (kill it). So, for those that catch and release, just assume that you caught the biggest/baddest predator in the lake and let it go (after a pic of course).
Headhunter Posted January 29, 2009 Report Posted January 29, 2009 Brian, try cooking the duck down first, then use the duck fat to fry the Pike... HH
