I would say chain pickerel. The top and bottom of the cheek and gill plate are covered with scales and I don't see any marking on its tail fins. A pike will have a fully scaled cheek, but only the top half of the gill plate cover will have scales the bottom of the gill cover will be smooth. Nice fish anyway.
On another note, that looks like a great place to find arrow heads. I am a amateur rock hound myself, but I think I see a piece that I would pick up to look at closely. In your photo straight above the pickerel's gill cover at the top of the photo, there is a different color stone in the shape of a spear point and possibly looks like it has been flint knapped.
