This is a link to the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission's Website.

It includes basic biological info on fish; and a list of all native, invasive, restricted and prohibited fish species in the state.

For instance, state record Oscar was caught in Lake Okeechobee and is 2.34 lbs. State record for Peacock Bass is 12.6 lbs (world record caught in Venezuela), and 13 of the 16 biggest Peacock Bass on record were caught in Florida waters.

Its a goldmine of information:
