Could you imagine what a thriving population of those could do for the 10+ pound bass in your pond?

It would certainly be interesting. Plus, it would give you the option of having a few crawdads to eat for yourself too!

It sounds like a win win to me.

I'm not a purest. I like to think of ways to innovate...not ways to stay the same.

I am imagining a food chain involving mud puppies, bullfrogs, red claw crawdads, gizzard shad and tilapia. It would look like Land of the Lost. LOL. Every food item would be monstrous LOL.

Can you imagine pulling a 15 pound bass out of your pond, opening it up and finding a one pound crawdad, a foot long salamander, a frog big enough to eat a mouse, and a tilapia that you could have filleted and eaten yourself? LOL. It sounds like a fairytale to some, but I think it sounds beautiful.
