Hogchoker fish are formally named Trinectes maculatus. Hogchoker fish are a small flatfish found in brackish water along the coast of North America. Hogchoker fish are abundant in the Carolinas. The name "hogchoker" comes from farmers who used to feed these fish to their hogs. The bony fish would make the hogs choke.
The hogchoker is a number of the sole family. It is a dark brown color with a lighter coor on their blind side without an "eye". Hogchoker fish feed on invertebrates and small aquatic insects. Most hogchoker fish have no ray or one ray on its pectoral fin.
In aquarium stores, sometimes hogchoker fish are sold as "freshwater flounder" or freshwater fluke".
Did you ever try hogchoker fish? I'm a fisherwoman and I didn't try hogchoker yet. Did anyone ever feed these to their hogs? I can't say I've done that either...
