but did u notice they didn't do any shock studies on the verret side? found that interesting


I do to. They give a reason why? That side is much more stable habitat wise, you'd think it would be the control group.

Me and a coworker also!

He went to break in his motor Sunday so he had a bunch of water eliminated already. That's all we could come up with too. Haven't heard much out of Crackerhead/Alcide area.

after staring at the pic, this pic doesn't do this fish justice, i hope they took more...they also called wildlife and fisheries who weighed and measured it and they let it go where it was caught

Good for them I'm glad a fellow conservationist caught it. A replica is a wonderful thing for many reasons.

read that they stocked the area with florida strain in the late 80's and some that size were caught in the mid 90's


When Andrew hit the Verret Area it put a huge dent in the fish population. That was really the knockout punch and Verret has never fully recovered from it.

We have owned a place on verret since the early 80's and I can say it was one of the best fisheries I have seen.

Everytime it starts to get decent another storm rolls in and knocks it back another 5 years it seems like.
