Northern pike (Esox lucius linnaeus) are at home in many of the lakes, rivers, and sloughs of Alaska. They range from the Interior to the Arctic coast, from the Canadian border to the Seward Peninsula, and southwest to the Bristol Bay drainages. A small isolated population is found near Yakutat. During recent years, pike have become established in streams of the Susitna River drainage south of the Alaska Range and also on the Kenai Peninsula.
