You can fish for barramundi in Florida I almost went last weekend but couldn't stomach the cost. It is 800 dollars for four hours for four people. The guy claims to have the only ones that you can fish for in the U.S. He claims a growth rate of 3/4 pound a month and keeps them in four aerated ponds. If I could get three other guys to go in with me I would do it. They are catching them in the twenty pound range with bass tackle and they are supposed to be similar to sea bass in taste. I wonder how large they can grow in a pond?
