Import Tips

Label clearly as 'fresh pickerel' with species scientific name (e.g

Sander vitreus) for CBP verification

Maintain cold chain documentation (below 4°C) to qualify as chilled, preventing reclassification as ambient temperature goods

Check for endangered species restrictions; pickerel is generally not, but confirm with USFWS if from protected waters
