Freshwater Drum (Aplodinotus Grunniens)

Does anybody here keep these? I keep seeing them being caught in North American fishing videos, but I've never seen someone keep someone in a tank or a pond. They look like they'd make such interesting specimens! (Which is generally true for a lot of NA fish species, but that's a different story)

i had one years ago. caught it fishing in lake Champlain, it was 8in when i got it grew to about 16in in the 3 years I had it. slow growing fish but super cool. it cruised around searching for food constantly. hopefully i can get another one some day

fugupuff has brought them in before. Maybe again?
