Yea that is a pretty steep fine!
but that lets the public know their serious and hopefully will prevent the spread of the NSH to other waters

Make sure you throw weedless. Most of the spots are choked out with milfoil/hydrilla right now. And on the possession bit, DNR stated at the above mentioned tourney that the fine for possessing a live snakehead is $250,000.00Rob Snowhite

--interesting time for this topic for me. After fishing in the Snakehead Tournament with the Urban Angler team (thanks be to Richard!!) I am now 'addicted' to trying to catch one on the fly. This weekend I will be hitting up some of the local NSH supposed hotspots sat/sun and plan on throwing dahlbergs/ deerhair poppers/ frog patterns.does anyone have any other pattern suggestions that have been successful for catching a NSH?My father is coming into town and after me telling him all about the snakehead he's done a lot of reading on them and he's hooked on the idea of catching one as well. (pun intended)Davis

It is a loosely defined word, but all 3 agencies consider possession to fall under the intent once a NSH is caught. Simply holding a fish up for a photo is not possession. Placing the fish on any part of what you are fishing from DOES equate to possession though… so that means if you release it in the water you're fine, but if you put it on the deck of your boat or kayak or haul it up on the bank, it's considered in your possession and no NSH may be in your possession alive.RRichard FarinoFrom: Ernie <ernie...@verizon.net>

Here are the rules:--It is against Maryland, Virginia, and federal laws to possess, import, or transport live Northern Snakehead.If you catch a snakehead and want to keep it, you must immediately kill the fish by removing its head, gutting it or removing its gill arches. The capture and possession of dead snakeheads is not subject to any season, creel limit or size limit.Please note the work "IF". You can release them alive. From experience, they are an incredible target. And they are tasty.Ernie
