Pond Boss Forums STOCKING A NEW POND Types of fish to choose Walleye

H2Ofwlr asks - Question; do walleye eat bullfrog tadpoles? We have hundreds of those in the rocks along with tiny fish.

I don't think very many fish species eat bullfrog tadpoles especially true for YP and WE. BF tadpoles inherently have a distasteful flavor to protect them from being eaten due to their very slow swimming ability that makes them very vulnerable to predation. My experience is LMB and some SMB are the main exceptions that will learn to eat and tolerate the off flavor or BF tadpoles. They eat and swallow them so fast that the bass probably does not taste them - LOL.
