Snakehead sightings should be reported to F&G.

Nice fish, glad you got 'em, I've never even seen one.

I had planned to report it, but on my walk out I saw signs saying snakeheads had been reported there. I'll head back tomorrow to see if I can get one to bite.

Unbelievable battle with ultralight tackle on a short line. I thought that it would break my line or bite off my lure. They have incredible endurance. The fish made many long runs and actually jumped a few times. It also dove into the muddy bottom. I was very fortunate to land it.
