Snakeheads in NEWYORK!

[craig]

A 28 inch snakehead was caught in Flushing Meadows-Corona Park 93 acre lake.They also found four more in the lake. Once it's determined whether the fish are reproducing,a strategy to eliminate them will be set in motion.

Already posted and already announced the plans on what they are going to do, they plan on poisoning the whole lake and then re-introducing the fish.

why are these dumb people releasing them into a lake and ruining it for everyone

 

[redtailfool]

what kind of channa is it?

 

[craig]

They said they are going to use saline. They are going to open a tidegate which separates the lake from the Long Island Sound.

 

[redtailfool]

wow thats a lot of work. are they going to dredge all the fish or let the natives die too?

PhullTank57's avitar is the snakehead they caught.

So let me get this straight...they are going to kill the snakeheads to protect natives? But kill the natives in order to get rid of the snakeheads? Sound funny.

Seriously though, I do understand that it is better this way, I was only kidding. If they put new fish in there I hope they subtract the carp. It might be awhile till there is good fishing there again.

I think they should get one of those trailing nets and get everything out of the water. Then, distribute the SH's to aquariums and responsible hobbyists.

 

[sandtiger]

They won't do that, the only sure way to get rid of them really is to kill them all...sadly. I would rather the hobbiest kill his fish then release it and be responsable for the deaths of millions of fish.
