John, when I used to go on fly in fishing trips to Canada, they would tell me to "throw those slimy bastards on the bank"! I actually like eating pike, yes, they have a stronger flavor than walleye, and of course the Y-bones. I would beer batter/deep fry them or grill them. A 40" was my biggest and I brought it in using a Diawa mini-spin ultralight while fishing for walleye.
