Tally,

there are some fish reserves in central Florida where barramundi are stocked. I believe in the Ocala area

There are no stocked ponds in the Ocala area. There are stocked ponds in osecola county. They are there to be farmed and sold as table fare. Im lucky enought to know the man who runs the farm and he lets me and my freinds fish the for free.

Heres the website.

That's the one I was referring to. I think I had seen it before on an episode of Bill Dance. Like I said, I'd love to catch one sometime. My brother in law lives in Orlando, I may have to bring the baby to see his uncle while I "take care of some business". ;)

If you do come down to "take care of business" Wait till like July or august. They love the hot weather. You could go out there today and not get one bite. but in July you would catch 150 in 4 hours. Shoot me a pm if you ever decide to go I could Guide for you.

Kewl. May have to do that before the fall semester starts up here.

A.J., look in the new Bass Pro catalog in the front.  Johnny Morris is holding a 52 lb. Barra.

My top fish to catch would be:

150+ lb. Tarpon on a fly rod.

Taimen on a fly rod.

Pirarucu, these things are total beasts.

Barramundi  on light spinning tackle.

Peacock Bass on the Amazon.

As far as freshwater, I've caught most of the main American species but I'd still like to catch a Muskie (just got some wire leaders and some glide baits to try at a nearby Muskie lake) as well as rainbow and brook trout (just got a fly rod) and a pickerel. The pickerel may sound weird but I don't have many bodies of water that have them near me. Also a snakehead (have a good fishery pretty close in the Potomac), redfish, and peacock bass.

You are about an hour away from one of your "exotics," but you wouldn't be in Alaska :):

Yeah a few years ago I went on a charter on Lake Ontario and my brother got a pretty nice King, so I know they are there. I want to go to Alaska and fish for them for a couple reasons. The first is that my uncle and cousins live up there, and I have always wanted to go there and visit them. The second is that the ones around here don't get as big as they do up there :)
