Great reports, guys!
I'm still working on a couple of state legislators to see if I can get them interested in making tilapia legal for pond stocking in Georgia.
There seems to be 2 areas of resistance on this:
1) the Georgia catfish farming lobby - they don't want the competition;
2) the extreme southern end of the state doesn't usually get cold enough to kill them off so there is a legitimate concern about introducing non-native species
Also, there are probably only a few hundred of us in the whole state who are interested in tilapia so, it's hard to get anybody at the capital excited about helping with this.
