Cozumel shortage of Lionfish

I do not believe they migrated deep.

I'm not an ichthyologist, but I don't think they "migrate".

East side has to be infested though I would think.........

Not as many as you might think. More than the west side, but not nearly as many as a few years ago.

Thats good to hear. Are people going after them over there at all/when weather permits?

That's a good illustration of how threads here often turn out with a big discussion about some irrelevant tangent point.

I still maintain if they want to make them extinct, spread rumors that they are like eating Rhino horns.........ultimate male enhancement! Will be hunted to extinction real quick LOL!

We humans have hunted plenty of animals to the point of extinction without even trying; I'm confident we can handle these little jerks.

We need you to hunt Exotic Fire Ants in Texas. Our Horny Toads think they look like appetizers, but they eat the lizards.

Don't forget the jackalopes that migrated from NM into the Texas panhandle... They need to be hunted before our children start to disappear

I’m not on the island often enough to say for sure, but there are usually hunters on the boat when I’ve been there. We’ve been around the southern end of the island to Islote my last couple of trips (March 2019 and July 2018). Don’t really know if the local fishermen are over there. I would suspect they would be.

The Chupacabra have eaten all the jackalopes!

A couple months ago we snuck around to El Islote where the DM found 3 lionfish. We saw none on the west side the rest of the week.
