Guys,

What are some reputable native farms selling online? I know Minnesot Muskie Farms is around but are there any other farms selling LMB/SMB, pike, walleye, perch,pickerel, etc. at resonable prices and sizes?

Where are you guys buying from?

Thanks!
 
Just so you know since you are in Illinois :

On October 24, the U.S. Department of Agriculture's Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service issued a Federal Order immediately prohibiting the movement of 37 species of live fish susceptible to VHS. VHS-susceptible live fish originating outside of the prohibited areas may move through or to the affected States and Provinces.

List of VHS Susceptible Species :

You will have issues purchasing any of these until this Federal Order is over.
 
jonahs and sachs both offer natives ... not sure about the game fish though...
 
I buy them from some friends that I have met around the forums...

That's pretty cool of you to do it for free Meepster.
