Only surprising thing is how long it took

 

[Coenen]

Ruh roh.

 

[Teh Wicked]

I just want to know which pond so I can take the fight to them...

 

[RamblinWreck]

Pond needs to be sterilized with extreme prejudice.

 

[Cmp1]

Definitely not good news,,,,

 

[danteky14]

Where is the pond? Got a kid who has been dying to catch a "River Monster."

 

[Coenen]

Considering the demography of the area, and the origin of the fish, Gwinett county is probably the most likely place to see them pop up. One just hopes they haven't been put in any more important bodies of water. Even if it's just a fool's hope.

This is a job for Lucille.

Yep, just a matter of time, not if.

 

[Browning Slayer]

Yep. Just another invasive species like the Spotted Bass. They should all be killed.

 

[Teh Wicked]

They could kill them all easily by releasing the location and giving open season on them...wouldn't be no time and the entire pond would probably be bare.

 

[StriperrHunterr]

Private property.

 

[Teh Wicked]

Exactly....

"Hey! Everyone, we got a huge problem here"

But there is nothing anyone can do, Private property.

 

[Coenen]

Private property.

I wonder if they could try to use eminent domain given the gravity of the ecological threat.

I don't know.

 

[Tarpfisher]

probably those dang tournament anglers @ it again. always transporting fish....

 

[bigewalksalone]

It is unlawful to import, transport, sell, transfer, or possess any species of snakehead fish without a valid wild animal license. So there is no private property..

I don't find that funny at all. Not one bit. They have ruined many of my favorite smallmouth, walleye, and white bass lakes by moving spots and bluebacks around. It's not a conspiracy theory, they have been caught in the act a time or two. I hope they choke on a blueback herring.

I was watching one of those game warden shows once and they were all over a guy for having a heavily populated goldfish pond.
