wickyman Posted April 23, 2007 Posted April 23, 2007 I was looking for my new tackle bag online, and came across this little video! It is a large mouth eating a croc! You have to see it to believe it... http://www.nothingtoxic.com/media/1171604763/Crazy_Fish_Eats_an_Unexpected_Animal Quote
Guest avid Posted April 23, 2007 Posted April 23, 2007 cool video. but be warned don't click on the Jessica Alba images (if you can resist the temptation) I got hammered with spyware. Quote
wickyman Posted April 23, 2007 Author Posted April 23, 2007 I didn't even notice those... I was too busy with my jaw, after I dropped it on the keyboard... That is the fish I want to catch! lol But what would you throw at it? A rubber croc?! lol That is absolutely insane! I am still in awe over that! Quote
wickyman Posted April 23, 2007 Author Posted April 23, 2007 I bet it did... Just imagine, if that bass was big enough to eat that alligator, how big was it really? I am going to say that the gator was in the 1ft. range! Just guesstimating. That is awesome! Quote
Pa Angler Posted April 23, 2007 Posted April 23, 2007 Awesome, Doesn't surprise me Bass eat ducklings and other small birds. Quote
wickyman Posted April 24, 2007 Author Posted April 24, 2007 I have seen a bass eat a baby squirrel once... Rather nauseating, to say the least... lol I bet that fish was looking for an antacid after that meal! Quote
fishingfourfun Posted April 24, 2007 Posted April 24, 2007 That was awesome. I am glad that they (bass) don't grow to big or I would be afraid to swim in the lake!! Quote
Shakes Posted April 24, 2007 Posted April 24, 2007 That video's crazy dude! Didn't think that could happen. Quote
wickyman Posted April 24, 2007 Author Posted April 24, 2007 Haha Yeah, I am still afraid to swim in our lake... Too many stories of a really old, large catfish out there... Like, Indian tales and stuff... I don't know if I should believe it or not... lol I don't trust it though... That, and the mercury content of the lake is so dang high... lol Quote
jomatty Posted April 24, 2007 Posted April 24, 2007 break out the crocodile swimbaits and 18 inch lizards!!! you dont get many bites but the ones you do are bigguns!!!! Quote
George Welcome Posted April 24, 2007 Posted April 24, 2007 Gator, not Croc - major differences. Happens frequently to the small gators - very few make it. Quote
Super User T-rig Posted April 24, 2007 Super User Posted April 24, 2007 I'm going to try one of those rubber toys that look like an alligator. Quote
jomatty Posted April 24, 2007 Posted April 24, 2007 there may be a major diff but if fish in my lakes will eat a rainbow trout swimbait then i doubt it is a major diff to the bass Quote
WhiteMike1018 Posted April 24, 2007 Posted April 24, 2007 Thats probably one of the funniest things ive ever seen. lol ;D Quote
wickyman Posted April 24, 2007 Author Posted April 24, 2007 Yeah, a larger swim bait, such as the rainbow trout, are also catching ginormous bass on our lake... We have a natural trout population, and the bass have to be pretty large, in order to even eat most of them... That is, if they even come across one! I have yet to catch a trout on this lake, but then again, they have probably been becoming more intelligent, as hundreds of thousands of people catch, and or release them... Quote
Dan Pitre Posted April 24, 2007 Posted April 24, 2007 That has to be one of the coolest things I have ever seen... 8-) Quote
Super User Redlinerobert Posted April 24, 2007 Super User Posted April 24, 2007 ;D That was classic. Quote
Super User Dan: Posted April 24, 2007 Super User Posted April 24, 2007 I think this was posted here before, but it doesn't really surprise me that a bass would eat a small gator. Somebody's going to make a topwater lure that looks and swims like a gator now. Quote
Peter E. Posted April 24, 2007 Posted April 24, 2007 I have no doubt that may not be all that un common. Friday afternnon I was fishing a creek, and one of the spotted bass I caught had eaten a snake, so when I went to get the hook out, there was a snake looking back at me! Needless to say I let the fish go, we need more of his kind down here! Quote
wickyman Posted April 24, 2007 Author Posted April 24, 2007 They eat snakes all the time... I found one that had several snakes in it's belly! lol Not very big, but big enough that it made me twinge a little... Quote
tbone31 Posted April 24, 2007 Posted April 24, 2007 Holy cow, I'm throwing my kids stuffed alligator this weekend!!!! Quote
