I have heard rumors: Someone transported Northern Studfish from the Indianapolis area to Ohio and released the fish, and then did it again.

Oh yeah. It is very easy to spot and ID them from the bank. That's great if you are wanting to getcha some. Did you keep any?

two, one @ 1.25" and one @ 3.25" thay are just to fast for me. plus the weeds (Stinging nettles) were just murder on the bank
most of the fish were after the riffles in flooded shallow areas very hard to get to i must say.
is that a tangerine darter P Aurantiaca in your web avatar?

Will that spread germs?
was it on the up and up?
or just a personal reason to have a supply close at hand.
what if they have changed something in the river and trib system here.
they are breeding for sure.

Maybe. Already happened.
No.
I don't know; I didn't do it.
Yep, a big IF.
