I was fishing lake fork a couple weeks ago and I saw some people fishing with these live salamanders. They were about 6-10 inches long and they say that the bass love them. I was thinking about maybe getting about 200 of them to put in my smallest pond as forage for the big LMB. Any idea if that is a good/bad idea?


I could be chasing anything from women to alligators but one thing's for sure, I'm after a trophy...

Water dogs are a great fish food. Everything eats them. I doubt that they would last long with big predators around.


It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.

I can get them at the bait shop but they sure will set you back a few bucks.

There was only one event where I saw that you could get enough of these to make a difference. There was one night where the ground seemed like it was moving. And it was full of these salamanders.

That was a once in a 50 year event.
