Snakeheads are a top predator. They will get nice and big in the river as long as there is an ample food supply. They are hear to stay and may upset the biodiversity in the river. Both parents guard the nest so they have a high survival rate.

It would be fun to tie into a 15+ pounder while bass fishing.
