[QUOTE="ILikePike, post: 319434, member: 7603"] Thanks to whoever cleaned up my first post, paragraph separation is definitely more readable. sl1000794 are you my long lost brother, there aren't many of us that actually like to fish for pike, clean them, and eat them. Is there a video, youtube, etc. out there showing this - if there is I haven't been able to find it. You would think with all of the fishing shows, fishing magazines, canadian guides, or even fisheries biologists, someone would have at least referenced these bones, so even if you don't remove them, to be aware of them when you fry up that tail section. I am no fish genius, but I have removed these bones for years. Like I said in my other 2 posts, if you are dealing with a fish maybe in that 2 to 2-1/2 pound range I don't know if they are really an issue. 4 pounds, or on up, for sure, these bones are very real. I believe that's why when we clean a pike, remove the Y-bones, and then later while eating with our family, someone at the table says "hey, you missed some bones" - we just say "darn it, how the heck did I do that". Admit it, you're just itching now to go out and catch a pike, buy a bottle of Windsor, and see how many drinks it takes before these bones magically appear. [/QUOTE]
