[QUOTE="deleted member, post: 76693, member: 816"] take out the belly bones and you should be good to go. one of the reasons this batch went in the canner was because a friend was "practicing" his pike cleaning without anyone around to show him how to get the y bones out. it didn't go very well. so, canning or pickling became the obvious solution. [COLOR="silver"][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] can anyone explain how the fish "makes its own liquid"? this has me kind of confused. you put the fish in the jar with a couple of teaspoons of whatever... or even just a 1/4 teaspoon of salt... and there is all of this room in the jar before it goes in the canner. then magically the jar is nearly plump full when it comes out of the canner? i suppose some liquid is drawn out of the fish and dispersed in the jar. but, its not like the fish drys up completely. anyway... just thinking out loud.
