So does florida's fish 'n game folks put restrictions on non-native fish catching in their waterways? Are you required to kill them like we are with the snakehead here in MD/VA? Can you catch and keep w/out permit, or are you still required to have a fishing license?
Seems there is a bit of money to be made catching and selling some of those guys... I'm sure there is a MFK'er who would kill for that beautiful PBass... though maybe I'm wrong?
Two a day limit on pbass, no limit on other exotics, still need a license to fish. Today was spent fishing the c100 canal system and ending up with probably 10 pbass, 6 Red Devils, 4 spotted tilapia and saw oscars, Nile tilapia, plecos, and the largest most gorgeous barred red devil ever, probably over 14"
This canal held a lot of large peacocks and reds, its a sheet. 15-20ft drop straight down and the walls are loaded with grass, you can see all the fish because its crystal clear, here's a peacock I caught still fighting it and a devil near it too
