It was funny because he had no idea what it was and it took me a minute to recognize it because I didn't think tilapia could live up here. So if you got a bigger one post it on here because I told him to join so he can monitor whats going on.
I've done all kinds of searchs and can't find any mention of tilapia records in Tennessee.

Definitely nothing in the fishing regulations about tilapia being an invasive species like the bighead card or the asian carp.

Here is the State of Florida and New World record tilapia....
