I wear a full ghillie suit. every thing is camouflaged. My mask my snorkel and spear gun. They are smart fish. You need every edge you can find. I have a camera built into my mask that will take videos of the hunt. I just get kind of busy when I am hunting and forget to turn it on some times.
Here are a couple of more shots.







there is no limit and they want them out of the lakes.  Last years total was 115 in the boat.

Up here in Ont. Canada we call them snakes. Most people don't keep them simply for cleaning the Y-bone out of them. I have caught pike 30- 35 lbs ice fishing. Still don't like them slimmee b*stards  ;D
As far as eating if filleted right they are much better tasting than Walleye which is the prefer ed fish to catch where I live. Since I got my smoker I tell everyone if you catch pike I will take all you can bring me. They are excellent smoked. I also can them with tomato juice and it taste like salmon  ;)

I have smoked them and they are great if fresh but they do not store well in the fridge. I had not considered canning them. I have a cocktail sauce that I can salmon in that is great on crackers and fish patties. I never thought about canning the pike in the sauce. I am going to have to give it a try. I am able to fillet them boneless. I have had lots of pratice. I might try canning a batch to See how they work out.

let me dig out that fish canning sauce recipe. You might like it a lot. I know several guys that have canned the steal head trout in this sauce.

OMG, ted have you ever noticed the pic of the Eifel tower. If you just look at it from the wheels up do you happen to see something that I won't mention out loud. snicker snicker teehee....................I know what you are thinking but I just happened to click on the link and that is where it showed up. The wife saw it at the same time so I am not the only pervert in this house.  ;D ;D

[TedEbear]

LOL - that pic was taken in 1999.  I've probaby looked at it dozens of times since then and no, I didn't notice that...until now.   ;D
