I like the novelty of possibly catching them too. They're insanely cool looking fish.
When the state stocks things like tiger musky or other 'novel' species or puts something new into a lake, it's important to send them pics and info if catching those fish in those places. They are surprisingly out of touch with what anglers are catching otherwise, in certain circumstances.

I'm with the notion of keeping certain things somewhat of a secret due to the masses of disrespectful googans lurking on the internet, but in many instances, directly contacting njfw about the success of their stocking efforts is the only way to keep those efforts going.... otherwise i think they just assume it's wasted time and money.
