Pond Boss Forums Thread Like Summary - Hello forum members from Florida

Hello everybody,

I live in Pensacola Florida and love fishing for bluegill and crappie. Only problem is I work all the time. However, I retire in 10 months and will relocate to the Philippines around the Cavite area. Does anybody know if there is bluegill and crappie there? Does anybody stock them there for sale? My wife is from there and wants to go home when we retire. After raising eight kids I figure it's the least I could do to take her there.

According to the literature, among freshwater fish in the Philippines are largemouth bass, crappie, walleye, and bluegill which were introduced into the river systems in 1999. You could probably get more accurate information from your wife's extended family.

Enjoy your retirement and all that the Philippines has to offer.

We used to have a few members from the far East.

'Rad' was one, and I think he was maybe from Chumpon Thailand??

Anyways, he was raising some barramundi which was interesting.

No idea about Philippines fishing. But, congrats for the retirement.
