The mortality rate on the fish I decide to let go is 0%. I have NEVER let a fish go that didn't survive, can you top that Skeets?

[merkman]

Please don't feed the trolls.

[kr8r.tom]

most of you pickle your northerns?

[bassNspear]

pickel, smoke and beer batter is great!

[Gordie]

yep pickle ,smoke, deepfry, bake,grill, cakes..hummmm makes me wonder what I'll do with the pike I got today. I think I can honstly say that anyway I eat pike is my favorite.

[bassNspear]

ya dude, i think your right, its hard to beat a good pike feast!

[Skeets]

can you top that Skeets?

No, I can't.

I'm sure some fish that are released end up dead anyway.

I'm sorry to upset anyone here, I'm merely stating my opinion.

Put about three tablespoons of Old Bay seasoning in a pot of boiling water. Chunk up the northern drop the in for about 3-4 minutes and eat with drawn butter.
