Etymology

The word 'pickerel' originated in North America, specifically in the early 17th century. It is believed to be a combination of two words, 'pike' and 'eel', due to the resemblance of the fish to a pike and its slender shape like an eel. Pickerel has been a popular target for anglers and has a rich history in freshwater fishing.
