I knew they were in the Potomac but st jeromes I thought would be too salty. Mike is a great guy and has always put me on fish when I put the boat in down that way.

They can live almost anywhere. They would probably live week in the toilet.

When I was 15 I had one of it's cousins the Giant Snakehead in a 55 gallon tank. I raised him from a baby and finally had to get rid of him when he grew to almost 4 ft in a tank that measured 4ft long. He had teeth that were about 3/8 of an inch long by the time I donated him to a Chinese Restaraunt.

That's exactly what I was waiting for them to say

Who told you that? I was always told they tasted terrible. Of course my sources are newspapers and yokels they interview on tv, so I may be dead wrong.

Potomac River

Although Buzz's Marina is rightoff the Chesapeake Bay. Meaning the Snakeheads are a REALLY big problem, if they can survive/thrive there.

They were imported to the US to be eaten. They're quite tasty according to the Chinese folks who bring them here.

Personally, I'd like to see a fight between snakehead vs. bluefish...
