Snakeheads are invasive in the mid-Atlantic, to the point where if you catch one in MD or VA you're legally required to kill it. You don't want them in your rivers, they'll eat everything else!
Also they're delicious, like a combination of mahi and flounder. They'll even cure and smoke well. They're a bit of a bitch to butcher, especially getting through the skin, but not terrible.
I'm not out there, but my heart still is. Michigan is an option in the future for sure though.
Hehe, I have no problem with Snakeheads, they're pretty much bait for Catfish, and of course a free food source for my baby monster haha. I've heard they taste great though and I'd love to try one I guess I look at it differently, cause I see people not liking the "Asian Carp" which, I don't think are even a species of Carp, and how they're all over the Rivers south of here and they jump in people's boats and shit, and I'm sitting there watching footage of that like "Wait I don't even have to catch bait? It just jumps right in the boat??? Why are they not liking this again?" LOL!
I mean those get pretty large, and I wouldn't want one hitting me in the face, but if I had a boat, and we had those fish here..... I'd be out there revving that engine up like a redneck in pick up at a stop light and grabbing a net to grab the fish jumping and tossing them right back out on a hook LOL. I've read that the reason Blue Catfish records have been breaking every year is because they enjoy eating those fish, and there's a lot of them, and Blue Cats are eating machines!
I can picture the joy of having SOMETHING to do in Winter, as Blue Catfish seem to be the only American Species of Catfish that actually gets more aggressive when it gets cold, which, would explain why a lot of state records are set in Winter. A dude here caught a 55 pound, and a 75 pound Flathead in Winter, but Flatheads like it warmer generally. For a couple years I'd see people in the South all Winter catching Blue Cats, and I'd look at the river all sad, LOL. I ended up making up lyrics to the Hank Williams song "Alone and Forsaken" and changed the lyrics to be about Catfishing in Michigan when Winter hits, LOL.
If you do decide to move on up this way I'll send you a Bucket and a Bubbler / Aerator Haha.
