I officially hate National Geographic. That was at least 50% science fiction and drama Shakespeare would be proud of. As far as getting information, there is some in here in the invasive forum but your best bet is going to the source, the NAS website, FWS, Virginia DGIF, etc.
My hunch was right. They never pass up drama to sell shows. The history channel has some BS on it too. Thanks, Tom

We have fliers in every baitstore in the area. Apparently some folks are mistaking them for Bowfin.
They are there and are apparently a persistent problem.
I have heard that there are TWO(?) species of Snakeheads loose in the river now. I know of the Northern Snakehead, but allegedly there are reports of Giant Snakeheads now as well. How did TWO different species of the same %^&# fish get turned loose in the same river?

I don't like most learning channels I wonder why the History channel has shows on UFOs, Iran being the next Iraq (the future hasn't happened yet), and so on... While the Science channel has shows on tattooing, sit com with "Little People" (midgets, and I mean no offense to anyone), and "What to wear" etc... I could go on about them forever...I officially hate National Geographic. That was at least 50% science fiction and drama Shakespeare would be proud of.
I hope Bowfin don't suffer because of them.We have fliers in every baitstore in the area. Apparently some folks are mistaking them for Bowfin

Here in Ohio it is the opposite, there is (so far) no snakeheads that have been found in Ohio and we do have a fair number of lakes and reservoirs that have at least small bowfin populations. People catch them and call in thinking they killed a snakehead and want to know what to do with it. On the other hand if someone does find a snakehead we definately want to know about it, but we don't need a bunch of dead bowfin turned in to wildlife officers. I have gotten some coments back that people have already been refered to this page to see the difference between the two. I don't deal with any such calls personally so I don't know if people really have caught bowfin in Ohio in the past 2 weeks or people have just been asking about snakeheads.

Ya know how they put pix of missing people on milk cartons? Maybe FWS and the state DNRs can lobby the eastern US beer distributors to put bowfin vs snakehead ID pix on beer cans. Then 90% of fishermen will have ID info handy when needed.
Good one!!
