Description
The American pike (Esox americanus) is a pike species, which occurs in the eastern and central North America in two subspecies. The redfin pike (E. a. Americanus) lives in the stream area of the Sankt-Lorenz-Strom and in the eastern USA to Georgia and Florida. The second subspecies, grass pike (E. a. Vermiculatus) occurs in the Great Lakes, in southern Ontario, in Michigan, Wisconsin and Nebraska and in the Mississippi basin. In the south on the coast of the Gulf of Mexico, the distribution area of the two subspecies is separated by the Pascagoula River in Mississippi. The redfin pike live east of it, while the grass pike west of the Pascagoula River to the Brazos River in Texas is common.
