idea to get rid of snakeheads

[Recycling Works]

yea, what an awsome fish, just wish some peeps wouldnt throw them in the lake and ruin the hobby for all of us!

Dude, can you imagine how much these pigs eat in the wild!!! I bet they eat their own weight every week, they are just gluttons!!

That's right some ***hole had to ruin it for everybody and he got away with it, they should of just gave him a super huge fine$$$$$$$$$ and made an example out of him, and let other people still be able to get them but keep track of who their are sold too, incase something like that would have happened again... *The WIFE****

FIRST OFF DO U THINK IT GOOD IDEA TO SPONSOR A FISH TURNEY FOR A FISH THAT COULD TAKE THE FINGER OFF A KID EASPECIALY BEINS U MENTIONED DIRECTING THE TURNY TO KIDS.

Second there is absolutely nothing they will be able to do about the potomac except try and keep them from spreading into the other eco systems.

Third they still dont no if they gonna be able to adapt to the salinity levels in the chesapeake bay.

Fourth dont say there a fresh watter fish and no way it possible for them to swim in salt. NEO has a salt watter grouper that lives in fresh watter! Difrent type of fish but u get the point.

Fith if they even tried to poision the potomac like the pond in crofton they would put local econy in a downwards spiral that would take for ever. They poison the river the fishery will be gone local guides be out of buiss bassmasters wouldnt be there. the poison would get into the bay possibly harm the crabing and fishing there to.

Only chance they have is to ecurage fishing for them. With incentives.
They already give out citations and patchs for catching fish of certain sizes. They could take and give say a citation for a channa under 12 inchs. citation and patch for 24 inchs and under citaion patch and shirt for 36 inch and up.


Maybe a possible discount on next years fishing license.

But this summer they should be established good enuf ima be goin fishing:0)

Dude where do u live ,. Now that i read some more of your posts you realy only have half a clue. They caught the dude fined the shhhhhyt out of him and proscuted him. hes not in jail but he got in major truble. Second the fish in potomac are of a difrent stock then the ones the guy released in the crofton pond. And to my knolege that person hasnt been found out. A
Also why you trying to start this hype up again. let the battle on snakeheads die out dude. we in maryland have them they will be here for ever now. the river never frezes over completely there to many factorys on it useing the river watter for cooling purposes . In your info under your name i see you couldnt put where u from only usa what u afraid someone might no where u live.

ill get my tank plt and we will shoot a couple of 120mm rounds in it and it should help. you should go catch them and sell them to people for tanks. i might even by one

don't be a dick. i'm in ohio. first off, my wife likes to get on here under my user name 'cause she likes to argue. doesn't matter about what either. I know the ones in the river aren't related to the crofton ones.i could't find anything about the guy getting fined. the only thing i read was they didn't do anything to the guy in crofton because it had been too long or some **** like that. i just though it would be a topuic of interest to some people on this forum that's all. i love snakeheads, probably my favorite fish. i'm pissed about not being able to keep them anymore and i'm interested in knowing more about them.their adaptability, etc., etc.,etc.. if you're not interested in the topic don't post.

does any body know what the biggest SH caught in the Potamic river was? their growth might be stunted by the cold or something if they are small.











dynamite

Northern snakeheads would not be stunted by the cold, they survive subzero winters in Korea very nicely.
There are waters in Oregon and Washington that used to have nice populations of Kokanee or mountain whitefish that are now homes only to introduced trout, bummer.

 

[leviathon13]

actually i'm torn between being happy they are here to stay and being upset that some idiot would be irresponsible enough to release them into native waters. basically, if anyone finds out any new info, post it! probably nothing 'till spring.

don't be a dick. i'm in ohio. .

Nuff said!
By the way im the person who brought the pittitions to the forums when the maryland ban was going on. And am responsible for lots of board members on lots of forums for throwing there votes in to help keep them Un banned.

And second off this aint the forum to be calling names on. Now see normaly ide go off on you. But beins i dont want Neo up all night trying to find a solution to unban me ima just leave this one be.
Goodluck everyone and happy hollidays.

there's an easy way around all this, just make every fish (except natives) illegal to keep,


of course, ITS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN
