Tim he field dressed 100lbs on the scale, pretty good size body for a sika. I've got lots of ag land around me, so they eat well all year in my locale. Biggest I've shot was 125 gutted, but I've seen really pretty, mature stags only go 60lbs. Hinds (doe) average 45, but I've seen a few go 80lbs dressed. Generally, sika on or near uplands get bigger bodies, those that live their whole life out on the salt marshes run smaller bodied. But you can never be sure, wide range
The snakeheads? Great tasting fish, incredible fight, fun to fish for, ugly and slimy as sin, invasive and the DNR encourages you to kill every one you catch. Only been here for 20 years or so and have taken over all the smaller, brackish waters around the Chesapeake. Go to Youtube and search for Maryland or Blackwater Snakehead fishing, you'll find tons of info and vids and advice. But again, every little bridge, ditch and pipe culvert around here now has folks shoulder to shoulder fishing any warm day from March to November.
