    Boneless Northern Help

    In all my cleaning of pike over 50 years I do not think I have ever encountered these 7 or 8 straight bones that you talk about nor have I ever seen them removed in any pike fillet videos that I have watched. Can you show me a video removing these bones?

    We're heading to CA on Thursday and hope to be back at Metigoshe by the end of April. I just looking for more slime in my tote on the boat and more bluegills in my live well. Walters would be welcome too. I'm sure the ice will not be totally off Metigoshe before May 1.

    Lake Metigoshe

    If you drive north on the west side of the Lake passed Birchwood Inn (taking the left forks in the road) to the end of the road you come to a 3 wire barbed-wire fence. On the other side of the fence is a 3'± concrete monument marking the border with Canada. About a 25' swath of forest has been...

    Boneless Northern Help

    I might fit in. I was a beer drinker for 50+ years, but I made wine with 2 friends for 30+ years in CA and developed a taste for good wine. Five years or so ago I quit beer and drink wine, mostly chardonnay but red wine with red meat usually. My 3 boozes of choice are Crown Royal Apple...

    Boneless Northern Help

    Wallys only have rib bones and pin bones and like y bones the pin bones are only in the lateral line above the body/belly cavity. Both the Wally pin bones and the northern y bones are to give the fish structural stability/strength from the lateral line to the dorsal fins/bones. The tail needs...

    Boneless Northern Help

    That's a good illustration Davey with one exception. Your illustration depicts y bones going all the way to the tail. Even before I knew how to remove y bones, I always cut the tail piece off and it was boneless. I'm pretty sure the y bones end when the rib bones end. If you do not want to...

    Boneless Northern Help

    Do a regular fillet job and you end up with a fillet with rib bones that are very visible and "y" bones that are hard to see. Just know that the rib and "y" bones only occur in the belly area of the northern. From the end of the belly cavity to the tail is all boneless. So remove the rib...

    I hate Elk

    db: are you between Metigoshe and the Peace Garden? If so do you get over to the A-Frame or DockSide at all? Both of my favorite watering holes. Like to meet up some time. Will be back to Metigoshe cabin in early May when ice goes out.

    There are lots of ice houses on the Lake (or were last week anyway) so I'd start near where they are.

    Electric trolling motors

    I cannot imagine fishing for largemouth bass my entire life. I caught a few in Virginia and New Jersey, but they were not much for table fare. Since I came to CA in 1981 I think I have only done catch and release twice - once on a trout trip to BC and once on a Coho trip to Alaska. Both trips...
