you folks that live down there got it made on sunfish and etc , I used to fish in a bar ditch to ketch supper when I visited there on vacation.
a short 2 block walk from the house ,and it was on like donkey kong .
never got to hit fresh water there much though as the salt and brackish led me to them . the mangroves on the indian and the beach and sebastian inlet ......good stuff

I would tend to think it is rare to ketch one on a hook ,but in an aquarium setting they do get much more aggressive when they get large . seen a large one chase other fish in there with it and eventually "suck" the scales right off another large fish, till it killed it
