I just saw a video from the website News10.net out of Sacramento, Ca about a couple of fishermen that caught a couple of fish from the Piranha family!

Pacu have also been caught in North Dakota, Patterson Lake I believe within the past two or three years.  They get there because of being sold at pet stores and then are released by their owner.

People are frigging idiots.

I have seen that pic from Patterson, these fish grow much larger that what the aquarium sites on the net tell people. I have one in a tank and it is well over 2lbs and 16+ inches long it can barely turn around. I would imagine that would make people want to trow them out but not wanna kill them. I however would dig a hole or find a spot in the frying pan when guests come to visit before I would release it somewhere it dosent belong. I think this fish would have no prob devouring a nest of eggs in a hurry. By the way anyone want a fish? It's free! 

I dont go around guessing cup sizes either I just know a nice rack when I see one.
