Season your skillet first, bud. There are tutorials online.

At this rate we're going to need a whole thread about you seasoning that skillet. I know the picture you posted clearly says "pre-seasoned" right there on the box, but your fans might need a thread to fully express their opinions and argue about how a skillet should be properly seasoned. I look forward to your Seasoning Svet's Skillet thread and the great success it looks like it will be.

Season it when you get it.Even pre-seasoned cast iron can do with some extra protection. To season your pan, heat it up on the stovetop until its smoking hot, then rub a little oil into it and let it cool. Repeat this process a few times and you're good to go. Clean it after each use.
Myth #3: "My well-seasoned cast iron pan is as non-stick as any non-stick pan out there."
The Theory: The better you season your cast iron, the more non-stick it becomes. Perfectly well-seasoned cast iron should be perfectly non-stick.
The Reality: Your cast iron pan (and mine) may be really really really non-stick—non-stick enough that you can make an omelet in it or fry an egg with no problem—but let's get serious here. It's not anywhere near as non-stick as, say, Teflon, a material so non-stick that we had to develop new technologies just to get it to bond to the bottom of a pan. Can you dump a load of cold eggs into your cast iron pan, slowly heat it up with no oil, then slide those cooked eggs right back out without a spot left behind? Because you can do that in Teflon.
Yeah, didn't think so.
That said, macho posturing aside, so long as your cast iron pan is well seasoned and you make sure to pre-heat it well before adding any food, you should have no problems whatsoever with sticking.
