Does any body know where I can get a large mouth around 8" to 12" and have it shipped to me in ohio. The tank is 6'x2'x18"tall. Any info on keeping these would be great.

Except for LMB being game fish it is Illegal to possess undersized and illegally caught fish...

I don't think ODNR is going to be busting down your door looking for a 6 inch LMB.
This spring is the perfect time to catch small bass here in Ohio. Any farm pond will have plenty. You can catch them with worms and a fishing pole (fake grubs and a jig would be easier). The hard part will be catching a bass and not the thousand bluegill. It might take some time.
my local asian food stores sell live largemouths. For some really odd reason they are a light bright green so they might have been farmed.
Sure that logic will work just fine when a ODNR CO walks over and takes a look at your illegal catch..Just go ahead and tell them "the ODNR won't do anything and will not care"
Try that on one sometime and see how may violations you can rack up in 15 minutes.

Perhaps you didn't see that I suggested he fish at a farm pond. Farm ponds are, by definition, on private property. I have never seen a wildlife officer on private land...maybe in Michigan it's different. In Ohio there is one wildlife officer per county. I like my chances.
