The redfin pickerel (Esox americanus americanus) is a subspecies of freshwater fish belonging to the pike family of the order Esociformes. Not to be confused with its close relatives, the grass pickerel and the chain pickerel , this fish is unique in the fact that it has brightly colored red fins. [ 2 ]
The former's fins have dark leading edges and amber to dusky coloration. In addition, the light areas between the dark bands are generally wider on the grass pickerel and narrower on the redfin pickerel. Record size grass and redfin pickerels can weigh around 2 pounds (0.91 kg) [3] and reach lengths of around 13 inches (33 cm). [4]
