A large food and game fish found in northern Pacific waters, related to the mackerel family.
From Atka Island in the Aleutians, named after the geographic region where this fish is commonly found and caught.
The Atka fish is so identified with its home island that the place literally became the fish's name—a reverse geography where the animal defined the region as much as the region defined the animal.
