A recent post made me think about this. We all live in different areas, and we all have access to different fish. What if we all posted the fish we encountered, and could then set up a trading network for those fish? It will be up to the individual members to establish the legality of this, but remember that trading is not selling!
I can get:
pumpinseed
bluegill (who can't?)
mosquitofish (again, who can't?)
channel catfish
blue catfish
yellow perch
white perch
golden shiner
tasselated darter
barred sunfish
white crappie
redfin pickeral
glass shrimp
northern hogchocker
various killifish and minnows
carp
longnose gar (occasionally)
and a whole host of saltwater natives (oyster crackers rule!)

So what do ya'll think? Anybody game?

What other salt species can you get?could you get tripletail,mangrove jack ect?

I'll PM you the next time I go fishing. What size would you like? I can get anything from .5" to 6" depending on if I use a net or my ultralight. I won't accept any compensation other than payment for shipping and packaging except the gratitude of my fellow fishkeepers.

Someone said they wanted small tripletail. And i catch them from time to time here in soflo. actually regularly. Idk on the regulations to ship them though. Ive never shipped saltwater also.

I would love it if you could collect some juveniles for me what do you want to I can get anything

I can get large quantities of small sunfish (pretty sure they're bluegill) right now; I still have a few thousand in my pond. I have yet to catch any of the adults; I kind of had baby sunfish show up one day a few years ago without me putting any sunfish in the pond. As a result, I'm not 100% on the ID, but the one that I grew out last year definitely appears to be a bluegill; it was pretty easy to pellet train and eventually would take food from my fingers.

I should also be able to smallmouth bass if the ones in my pond breed again this Spring. They've got some good genetics; some of the adults are around 2' long. I also might be able to get walleye/saugeye/sauger, flathead catfish, bullhead catfish, and gars depending on whether or not they breed for me; I have yet to find any juveniles for any of those fishes in my pond, but there are sufficient numbers of adults to hopefully have a decent number of both sexes. Oh, and I also have steelcolor shiners/spotfin shiners (not 100% on which of the two; I need to catch some again) in there, and they've been breeding in good numbers.

Let me know if you guys are interested in any of those fishes; I'll do my best to catch some little ones before Winter if anyone is interested.

I'm interested pm me

I live in Orlando, fl...I'm pretty sure I'll be able to get some juvie bowfin this spring. I also have access to "wild" stock of common plecos pushing 24" in a river not far from me. Pretty much anything in the area I can get...I've also gotten small trippletail less than 6". I know that mangrove snapper can acclimate nicely to freshwater and can get a ton of them in the 3-5" range.

Snookman I would be interested in juv bowfin,tripletail, can u get lady fish , snook,sheepshead ect?

Has anyone ever made a trade from this thread? Or has it been a never-ending request thread that no one responds to?

I traded with someone at least I tried I couldn't catch any when he sent me the shipping money and fish bags so I had to send him his stuff back. I do wish that this thread would work a little better though.
