A massive, record-breaking fish has been pulled from a South Florida
canal -- but it's not good news. That's because the 14 pounds, 3 ounce fish is a bullseye snakehead, an eel-shaped, freakish-looking invasive species that Florida Fish And Wildlife Commission officials certainly weren't hoping to find growing quite so fat in Broward County's C-14 canal. FWC staffer Murray Stanford was electrofishing for snakehead -- a technique used by biologists in which a weak electric current temporarily stuns fish to make collection possible -- when he pulled up the whopper of an unwelcome guest. http://tinyurl.com/d836s76 |

Haven't heard much about them here lately. Talked to a fisherman in WalMart buying supplies for a bass contest coming up on the Potomac. He says they don't seem to be hurting the bass fishing much. Salmonbait -- 'Name-calling'...the liberals' last resort. |
