(More customer reviews)I've got the non pre-seasoned pans and I seasoned them according to the instructions. The key I've found it to preheat the oven and put the empty pans in at the same time. When the oven is at the right temperature, pull the pans out, and dribble a little oil (I use light olive) into each fish, take a paper towel and rub the inside completely then spoon/pour in the batter. Then they pop out perfectly every time.
The design is cute, but as with any sort of bread thing, the pattern shows through but not perfectly. Still fun to use. Two pans will handle a regular batch of muffin batter from my Joy of Cooking. (I like buttermilk c/ bananas walnuts, or blueberry, or craisn's or apples as well as the cornbread recipe that lodge sends with the pans.

Southern chefs will tell you that nothing bakes cornbread, muffins, or hushpuppies like a good cast-iron pan, and this Lodge Logic perch pan is among the best. The vessel features a series of five fish-shaped impressions, each measuring 4-1/4 inches long and 2-1/2 inches wide. The piscine shapes are clever and precise, complete with fins, scales, and other perch-specific details. Meanwhile, the batter cooks beautifully thanks to the cast-iron material, which heats slowly but evenly and holds its heat far longer than stainless and aluminum rivals. The resulting muffins and cornbread cakes are cooked to the peak of perfection, with slightly crisp exteriors and moist, flavorful insides. It's the perfect way to add a watery touch to your next meal, particularly if your family is filled with fishermen.
Unlike traditional cast-iron cookware, Lodge Logic pans come preseasoned through a proprietary "electrostatic" vegetable oil spray system. The preseasoning process readies the bakeware for cooking right out of the box, making it far more convenient than old-style cast-iron pans that required oil and oven seasoning before use. The timesaving process also generates a nonstick finish that helps preserve the bakeware for generations while crafting an attractive heirloom appearance. Lodge recommends hand washing the pan with a stiff brush and hot water for best results. The pan measures 15-1/4 by 1 by 5-5/8 inches (W x H x D) and carries a lifetime warranty.
