I am a fan of farm raised bait, but I have a concern with black salties. Won't be a preoblem in the salt, but what happens to a freshwater lake when a bunch of these come off the hook or get dumped... I would like it if they came with a self destruct button.

No, no, no. we’re 30… 30, three zero.

Why not just become a better plugger? If eels get banned, will people start live lining garden snakes?

I think Garden snakes is a bit of a stretch....However I dont care how "good" a plugger anyone is, you will never beat Live bait. Thats the one hurdle a hunk of plastic or wood will never get over.Toss a live well in the truck, catch some scup and put a hook in there nose=Big bass...

Yup, they work, only thing is, they have to be 10.5" to keep which is fine with me, just trim the fins so the bass can suck 'em in easier.

I heard that they may not be legal in MA? Sounds like an accident waiting to happen to me. Once they get into fresh water they could become a problem. And rest assured some yo-yo is going to dump a bucket load into fresh water.

I know nothing about Black Salties but why aren't they sterilized during the fish farming process? This would solve the problem of them being released into freshwater bodies of water.

I'm with you on this one. Too many "exotics" (plants and fish) are really causing havoc. Everyone...PLEASE use common sense and be careful!

Three-fourths of the Earth's surface is water, and one-fourth is land. It is quite clear that the good Lord intended us to spend triple the amount of time fishing as taking care of the lawn.
