oobar Posted September 9, 2015 Share Posted September 9, 2015 Does anyone know of any largemouth bass to be found in Thailand? We live in Isaan and have a good-sized pond on our property, currently containing trash fish and minnows. It would seem that largemouth bass -- terrific eating by the way -- would thrive in this climate, as they do in southern Florida. If they exist in Thailand, we would like to find some.

tingtongfarang Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 (edited) Not sure if its still there but last year i visited a lake not far past minburi (outskirts of bkk), the owner told me about all the different species in there and charged me 100bht to fish for the day including the use of a boat, I spent atleast 5 hours out on the water and only managed to hook 2 peacock bass on the lure, after fishing i had a nosy around and noticed the had cages and were breeding all kinds of exotic fish including arapaimer and redtails, i also noticed a few large tanks with bass and other species, I dont think it runs as a fishing park per se but rather a place for breeding fish to be sold to fishing parks, along with a few bungalows which local police use as a short time hotel.

Gonsalviz Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 I read before that they were stocked in some lakes but the Thais threw them up on the bank to kill them. Didn't want them eating indigenous fish. I agree with the Pla Chon. Really good to eat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willyumiii Posted September 11, 2015 Share Posted September 11, 2015 A little off topic, but somewhat related.... I also have a pond and have bought some live catfish from the local market to stock it with. What I have been wondering about is crayfish or "crawdads". It seems they would do well in this climate and they reproduce pretty fast. Does anyone know if any are available here in Thailand? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
