I heard that there were piranha in LOZ. I found a picture of a world record. This is how big they can get. So, are there PIRANHA in LOZ?

If there are and they get this big. What would be the best lure and presentation? :)

That's not a piranha, it's a tigerfish. They're native to Africa, while piranhas are native to South America. Still a big nasty fish, though.

Piranhas turn up every now and again in LOZ, just like they turn up every now and again in other MO waters. People dump their pets when they get too big for an aquarium, or too expensive to keep feeding. It's not a self-sustaining population, though.

I didn't think it was that obscure of a reference.

pirhana will die when the water temp stays down in the 50's they are a tropical fish and require water temps in the high 70's low 80's for their metabolism to work. with no warm water discharge from a power plant on LOZ, i'd say little to no chance one would make it through the winter.

Was a show bout them going up into the springs that feed LOZ and being able too perhaps survive the winters. They put some in a large tank and lowered the temp and it got below 50 before they started too really loose it.
