Lionfish are HERE

[Guba]

This will help...spread the word that lionfish are powerful aphrodesiacs, that their flesh is better for this purpose than shark fins, and to get the full effect, lionfish need to be consumed a number of times.

(If word gets to Asia, imagine the possible effects on the lionfish population....100 million sharks can attest to power of the human libido!)

Great Idea!

Maybe get a sticky up so we can keep it all in one place. I propose we count any photoed fish killed between say Mexico Beach, and the Mississippi River. Otherwise folks could go on vacation and wreck the curve.

Winner, either quarterly, bi-annually, or annually, could get something like a free dinner with Bugman at the Hooters of his (Matt's) choosing? or two free drinks with Denise?



Seriously, like a gift cert at a local dive shop or McGuire's....

The gift card is a better idea. Denise can't stop at two drinks and Mat can't stop at 1 Hooter's.

I call that a bonus.

And now they're in Louisiana too:

Update: Now Louisiana has invasive lionfish population (with video of lionfish being eaten) | al.com
