Dear Northern Virginia:
Merry Christmas, all. Forget the chain pickerel. They dress like a fancy-Dan, but that's about the only nice thing I can say about a toothy member of the pike family in a small system.
It sounds as though your pond is fine shape with a good balance among the fish populations. Still want to introduce another predator species? Go with the hybrid striper.
Here's why: * It's inexpensive and readily available to stock. * It grows to 10 pounds. * It takes commercial fish pellets. * It occupies open water, away from your largemouth. * Hybrids do not reproduce, so you have firm grip on their numbers.
