If you’re looking to do some catch-and-release fishing for smallies, certain parts of Canada won’t be the place for you.

Invasive species are a major problem, no one denies that. When a species is introduced to a place they don’t belong, they tend to either die off immediately or dominate, at least from what I’ve noticed while following outdoors happenings over the past few years. Here in the states we have a bunch of invasive species wreaking havoc throughout the country: Wild hogs, snakeheads, green iguanas, Burmese pythons, and cane toads come to mind right off the jump.

Let’s take Burmese pythons as an example of just how destructive invasives can be.
