I saw a few breeding pairs when I lived in Hawaii, Oahu to be exact. Couldn't get them to hit anything though. They have Channa striata introduced there.
caught one in the potomac with a dark brown zonker.I believe it was a northern snakehead. Didn't kill it because at that time I didn't even know what a snakehead was until a local fisherman caught one too.
I caught lots of them in Fort Lauderdale when I lived there a year ago and they will pretty much strike at anything moving. Coral Springs to be exact. They were very agressive and i didnt kill any. Unsure of what kind but it was fun
i have went after them in south fl around 3 times now with no luck fishing or netting
but thats my luck i guess
others catch them,and one guy even caught a baby snakehead with his hat where i was
and WHEN i catch one i dont think i could kill it sorry
but i will do this,all the babies i net i will use as bait
i caught one off a lake in rancho bernardino usein a dark green with red dots platic worm i think it was Northern i put it in a jar of alchool and sent it to my bio teacher.
hopefully ill get it back it be a cool room peice.
