Re: [GSAS-Member] Freshwater Lamprey

Hi Jeff,
I am sure it was and is a completely illegal act to try and keep a sea  
lamprey and would be impossible without a host fish to feed on.   
Although I never kept a lamprey, in my teenage years I kept about  
anything I could catch without really considering the legality of it.
