What are Jacks ? Salmon or Pike ?

The difficult thing about terminology related to fly fishing is that certain words have a different meaning depending on country and region. While evaluating the results of the Fly Fish quiz I got a lot of comments from people saying "A jack is a small Pike" where others would say "No way, a jack is a small salmon"

Now this is pretty interesting and I would love to hear your thoughts on the matter.

The same thing happened with the term "Stripey". Some people say a Stripey is a Perch where others say that it is a Bass.

Please share your thoughts !
