It was a mesh hat. I thought it couldn't be any more inefficient than your basic tank net. Would you believe it: Fish move really fast when motivated!
Actually, in all seriousness, someone recently dumped a large oscar into the stream I mentioned. I don't believe that it's on the wetlands property because I called the park office in charge of it and never got a reply. It was, last time I was through there before a large, long thunderstorm last weekend, in a fairly deep spot held back by a number of large rocks that a fish of his size probably wouldn't cross without motivation. No idea how to catch it. Or what to do with it beside killing it if I did. So suggestions on that end are welcome.

Catch it with a hook and line, and smack it against the rocks. Don't smack it so hard that it explodes!

Yay! another Virginian. Welcome to the forum. I hope to get a local trip together sometime soon so keep your eyes open for any announcements.
Look forward to it!
Are you a member of PVAS as well? I think we may have met at the June meeting. I had the box of fugly aquarium decorations to give away.

Well, I guess that *would* solve the problem. I'm just a bit squeemish on that sort of thing so it's not something I would relish doing in the least.
