Just curious. Where exactly are LMs a truly native species.

Hi Bob -- I checked Robbins and MacCrimmon"s "The Blackbass in America and
Overseas" on you question. In some cases they were only native in part of
a
state, sometimes a small part, but here are the states when they say LMB
are
native.

Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas,
Kentucky,
Louisiana, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Nebraska, New York,
North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, South
Dakota,
Tennessee, Texas, Vermont, Virginia, West Virginaia and Wisconsin.


Thanks, that matches what I found on a couple of the different state DNR
websites. Basically they said they were native atleast in part to most of
the USA east of the Rocky Mountains.

East of the Mississippi and west of the Hudson, for the most part.
