Android,

In most if not all MN water the small mouth bass is a native species.  The small mouth bass is not native to the Arctic watershed.  At the gathering in Madison at Canoecopia, I spoke with Doug from WCPP about smallmouth bass.  In the WCPP pamphlet, it had a red x over a picture of a smallmouth bass.  Then on the same page they had restrictions on when and what size of smallmouth bass you could keep.  I asked Doug why not let anglers catch and keep any size of bass any time of the year.  There is an internal debate on how to treat smallmouth bass.  It will be interesting to see what the final decision will be.

So let me see if I understand you, invasive is different than non-native just like you can have six or a half dozen.
