Hey Roxanne
I released them all. I find nothing wrong with eating any fish, I just mostly fish for the sport of it.
Well, even though these fish are exotics, these particular species have been a breeding population here for many years. They are found in just about every lake, so I felt no need to kill them if I wasn't going to eat them. If I wouldv'e caught a species such as a Snakehead or Walking catfish which are rare here and don't have a high breeding population I might harvest those since they are very destructive.
Take care.
