Introduction

Chequit is a place named after a variety of fish found in the area, known as the Weak Fish by the English, also called the squeteague. The squeteague is sometimes referred to as a “weakfish” because of the ease with which a hook tears from its mouth.

Variations include weakfish, chickwit, sea trout, squitee, chequit, and squeteague.
