Catch of the Week by: Charlie Freeman.

Plecos, consisting of more than 150 species, are catfish who have suckershaped mouths and bony plates and spines over their bodies instead of scales to protect them. They can raise and lower their spines and plates when threatened by a predator. These fish are well-known algae eaters who originated in the rivers of the Amazon jungle in South America. In nature, many live in fast-moving rivers and streams where they use their suckermouths to attach to rocks and wood to help prevent them from being swept away by water currents. Plecos are often called “janitor fish” because they are scavengers and will eat and clean up almost anything. They are recommended for beginning aquarists.

Fish License-Free in Florida Two weekends in June

The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) invites residents and visitors to go fishing in Florida during two license-free weekends: June 4-5 for freshwater and June 11-12 for saltwater.

License-free fishing days provide a fun opportunity for new anglers to try fishing for the first time or experienced anglers to introduce a friend or family member to a new hobby. The fishing license requirements are waived for all recreational anglers during these dates but all other rules including seasons, bag and size limits still apply.

The saltwater waiver applies to any recreational activity requiring a saltwater fishing license (e.g., crabbing, lobstering, scalloping, etc.), whether fishing from shore or a boat. A snook or spiny lobster permit also are not required on these days, however, always make sure to check recreational regulations. Plan your trip with information about places to fish.

Looking for a freshwater fishing spot? Some of Florida’s freshwater lakes have special largemouth bass swimming in them, worth big prizes! Join our TrophyCatch program’s 10th season and learn more about the 10-Tag Celebration on TrophyCatch.com.
