San Antonio power plant has a lake with tilapia and also redfish that survive year round. Tilapia also survive year round in my lake. Has made a big difference in the bass wieghts and populations. I don't do any supplemental feeding in my lake but I have caught and eaten some of them and they didn't have any offensive taste to them.

I have found dead tilapia weighing over 5lbs. So, there does need to be some removal plan in place when they get established.
