Description
Native to the fresh waters of eastern North America, chain pickerel is a predator that is often found on the top of the food chain. It reportedly even feeds on frogs and snakes. Chain pickerel is a popular game fish reported to fight hard on the line, but it has never been commercially harvested, possibly due to the difficulty in removing this fish's tiny bones from the meat.
