Alligator snapping turtles have the same technique on a string of baby ducks and are just as effective .ivan salis said:big bass eat baby ducks --oh yah -- I once saw a monster catfish follow a momma duck and her ducklings across a pond --she started across with 4 babies behind her in a line (awww how sweet)-- by the time she got to the other side she had none left -- the old catfish just got behind them and sucked em down one by one . --when she turned around it was sad , sad , sad -- if their big enough the cats and pike will eat adult ducks as well. -- by the way the big cat was very tasty --I went and got a yellow rubber duckie type bath toy --rigged it with a hook and splashed it out there twitching it slowly --the old boy came a running --last mistake he ever made -- weighted out at almost 30 lbs.

If that on the st johns? We have some cats in the Tennessee River. Big ones. I used to jug them when I was a kid. You cant paddle as fast as they would pull a jug at night. Always fun.ivan salis said:matter of fact I'm in the "catch bubba" charity catfish contest this year ---oct 10th, 2009--jacksonville,fla --me and my cuz (two man teams) took 7th place last year --hoping to win this year. $5,000 bucks
ivan salis said:nope this charity catfshing contest is held at a several acre well stocked pond * there are 100 spots * sold ( each spot can have 2 persons with 1 pole in the water each --or 1 person with 2 poles) --cost is $275 per 2 man team -- no live fish allowed as bait (since one nitwit showed up with goldfish as "bait" one year) --which is illegal to use as bait by law , besides lil kids there cried upon seeing goldfish (often a kids pet) used as bait . -- in 2000 I won with the first ever "bubba" caught a 38.04 lber --worth $5,000 -- last year the overall weight got beat by a 45 lber and me and the cuz took 7th place -- this is my 10th year in the contest -- in the past 9 years --I've won once and came in 7th last year --not too bad odds wize . on a rough odds random basis -- in ten years with 10 places to win and / 100 spots (teams)--one could expect 1 top ten finish--- I've had two already and thats not counting whatever I do this year yet.
