jpumou I caught this fish yesterday. I had never seen one up close before. I thought it was a Muskie so since it wasn't 42 inches long i let it go. Then I get home started researching and it looks more like a chain pickerel but is much lighter than ones i see in internet. Rough measure was 26 to 28 inches long. I didn't weight it. Was in kayak and was afraid it was going to get out of boat.
