Puffer Fish and other ways of thinning the herd: doh.state.fl.us Lots of sheephead and redfish at a spot I used to fish. I went there last weekend, lots of snowbirds, smart city slicker types who can give me all kinds of quants and such that are down here for the winter. The sheephead and redfish are all fished out at this spot - but these guys are newbies and catching this fish they have never seen before, puffer fish. They have heard there are lots of good schnook and redfish and such but all they keep catching is this fish that blows up like a balloon. Now seminole or zeus or Vosilla will probably be able to tell you the reason there are so many puffer fish left to catch is because they have toxins in them that can kill you if you eat them, so the educated fishermen throw them back - but these snowbirds who are newbies looking to take up a new hobby aren't aware of this and are so excited they are catching so many puffer fish and dont really think through why there is only puffer fish and no redfish or sheepshead. A nice person tells the daddy who is about to cook the puffer fish and eat it with his yankee kids, NO WAY JOSE - bad news - but some folks just walk off and let the evil spread. I assume very soon there are going to be signs posted at this fishing spot not to eat the puffer fish, currently there are none. All these people had to do was read a little bit of info on the web, I send you several links, you don't read them, you keep insisting your 23% return was superior and I show you much higher returns - I don't know what else to do General, I really do like you, you make me laugh, but you can only lead a horse to water. If I tell the yank not to cook and eat the puffer fish and he does it anyways - am I supposed to pull my gun out and shoot at his grill so him and his family don't hurt themselves?
