What kind of fish is this?

Northern snakehead are bad news. And for the first time, invasive northern snakehead fish have been confirmed in Georgia waters.
If you believe you have caught a northern snakehead:
- DO NOT RELEASE IT.
- Kill it immediately and freeze it.
- If possible, take pictures of the fish.
- Note where it was caught (waterbody, landmarks or GPS coordinates).
- Immediately report it to your regional Georgia DNR Wildlife Resources Division Fisheries Office.

I like to imagine this was China's insidious plan all along.

"Disney Cruise" spray painted on the side of it and we won't even have to coax them on board. Once unleashed on to mainland China they'll go straight to work destroying the local environment with cookie cutter communities and Buffalo Wild Wings.

Hope so because that's about the only way to cut their numbers once established.
They are the Kudzu of the fish world, or something like that. Imported from the same place anyway.

migrating south for several decades. And it's not like you can stop them. They walk on land to get to the next water source. They're Terminators, basically.
