Just so you know, I do have a degree in fisheries science, and have aided in electrofishing on many occasions as an intern biologist aid and as an outdoor columist.

I am well aware of the dangers. I'm attempting to sell trophy fish of several feed trained species, and although fun, angling does not allow for complete harvest even in small ponds. Therefore I am considering the electroshocking option and not as a toy.I would be glad to hire someone, but as far as I can tell there are none within 300 miles.

You can say what you want about this site, but at least there are regular contributors vs. The AquaNic site that is perused by academics that can't find the time to help others or offer advice. One PHD down the road from me is so full of himself and selfish it's laughable.

If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.
