I am glad the info was obtained - it is good to know. But this withholding of information is just nonsense and really sad. I don't understand the motivation.

This is a very small area, and the collector may want to be an exclusive provider of this species for as long as possible. I see nothing wrong with that. Its business.
 
I have stayed out of these threads until now but I couldn't help but post now. I am amazed that people have asked simple questions that only deserved simple answers in return. I guess it serves to show the character of a person when they deliberately with hold information for the sole reason of fanning the flames. This whole topic could have had an early end to it if only the answer had been put forth.
Ira. Way to make a Private Message Public. IMO, you have shot your self in the foot with that one.:thumbsdow

Mo, well done!

As for the umbees. Scott if you don't know the collection point I understand. I doubt anybody really does.

The posse keeps making these claims but fails to support them with evidence. Don't blame me for your complex.

As for the umbees. Ask the SELLER. Geez! Come to think of it, why are buyers "teaming up" with sellers anyway? Isn't it in all our interests to be sceptical?
 
Glad that we finally got an answer to this!

...so H. carpintis "Chariel", "Vontehillo", "Escondido" and "Laguna de la Puerta" are all within the same close area and the same watershed (the mouth of the Panuco River near Tampico).

I assure you that all of these fish are completely different, distinct populations. At least in name.

I guess the next question is: What is the process for commercially collecting and exporting LOTS of wild fish from Mexico?

Yes...please...lets all go back and review all of the comments that started the continued beating of this long dead horse.

Give it a break.

Peace......out.

Matt,

That's what it would appear. Don said Rusty was asking about the location. I'm sure he will be able to fill in any blanks.

As to collecting and exporting...I'm not an authority. Best to ask Eddie Martin or Ken Davis.
 
 
I would still love an answer to the Rapps umbee question that I posed earlier in this thread. I know that there are enough people out there who bought them at $150 a piece. Does anybody know where they were collected?

I'm sure Jeff Rapps could tell you if you asked him.
