Remo- your third pic down with the snook with the flared fins is a killer pic! You should put it in a frame! I think it's just a neat pic of a neat fish.
I have had a few oscars in tanks back when I did south american cichlids in my tanks. They are aggressive, strong, and pretty clever. They can be kind of a bully. I have always been curious what they fight like on tackle. Also kind of curious how they might taste, too (not aquarium raised, but, like how you and your posse got them).
As much as I wish all those invasive species were NOT in the Everglades, I always find it fascinating to see their colors when caught in the 'wild' VS a captured setting- like an aquarium.
Thanks for always posting your pics. I don't post a lot, but I always look at yours, because I always like looking at pretty fish!

PS- when you catch an invasive species there, are you required to catch and kill? Just curious what the regs are....
