Northern pike, Esox lucius, are not native to aquatic habitats of southcentral Alaska south of the Alaska Range. Introduction of northern pike into these freshwater systems may have deleterious effects on native fish, including various species of Pacific salmon. This report summarizes the continued effort to restore salmonid habitat by removing invasive northern pike from four freshwater lakes on the Kenai Peninsula.
Invasive northern pike found in Southcentral Alaska, including the Kenai Peninsula, originated from illegal introductions and subsequent pioneering. Invasivenorthern pike have the potential to severely impact native fish species, particularly salmonids and trout. This report summarizes efforts to reduce the population of northern pike in two Kenai Peninsula lakes and to inventory for the presence of northern pike in other local lakes.
Documents the distribution of invasive northern pike Esox lucius in Derks Lake and Sevena Lake on the Kenai Peninsula and the impact of the ongoing control efforts on native fish species.
