I've never heard of that Dave. Good to know. Here is the first thing I found when I googled it:

Pickled Northern Pike Recipe

This recipe can be used with any fish but northern pike works best. Before using this recipe be sure to freeze the fish at least 5 days. This will destroy any parasites that are present in the fish or bacteria that may have been picked up during the cleaning process.

So it sounds like it will be ok if you freeze it first?
