The Gaon Rabbi Yitzchak Itzik Grishaber (1741-1822), was a disciple of the Nodah B’Yehuda. He
served as rabbi of Paks (Hungary) from 1782. He exchanged halachic correspondence with the Chatam Sofer who highly praised him in his writings. In 1797, he strongly opposed the reform R. Aharon Choriner who permitted eating the non-kosher fish Acipenser Ruthenus. His correspondence on the subject with the rabbis of the times was printed in his sefer Makel Noam (Vienna, 1799).
