Redfish will eat anything
 
One of my customers today caught a red. I had forgot my net at my lift so I was grabbing by hand. Imagine my surprise when this red came to the boat with a water moccasin hanging out it's mouth. Snake was dead but didn't change how I felt about it

I've seen a big bass smash a snake while it was swimming along the surface in Lacassine. Made me want to start fishing with one!

when I was little my dad had some top water baits that looked like snakes

Know a guy that caught a bass on the river. Put it in the livewell. When he opened it, there was a cotton mouth in the livewell. Figures the bass threw the snake up.

bjhooper82 10-17-2011 08:47 PM

Dayummm. That's nuckin futs!!!!

Jedi Lure Tricks 10-17-2011 08:53 PM

pretty cool!! i know bass eat snakes too. ive cut open bass before and seen weird stuff.. once found a baby bird, the yellow beak suggested a baby robin.

i think mcjared posted a pic a while back of a bass with a whole duck in its gut!

just goes to show that predatory fish are total opportunists!

I have a snake head that you thread on your line with a 7 inch u tail worm , the head makes it float and swim on top like a snake. Killer in the spring on those warm days. Or weight it down and fish the beds

LPfishnTIM 10-17-2011 09:09 PM

Ive found acorns in a bass stomach

Never seen the snake head before but I do like to chunk a 10.5 inch worm weightless and drag it across the surface.

Was fishing on the Atchaflaya last year and watched a squirrel walk out on a log and eat an acorn. Heard a helluva splash and a gator got that squirrel. About 5 minutes later, that gator went up and put another acorn on that log:eek:

Another time on Caney Lake, I was backing the boat down and a squirrel fell out a tree and hit the pavement. Looked dead, so I grabbed it and put it in my tackle box to eat later. Forgot about that thing and after I got to where I was going to fish, I stopped the boat and reached in the tackle box and that dang squirrel jumped out the boat. He had 4 topwater baits stuck to him. Took off into the water and before he got to the bank, there were 4 bass all over 5 lbs hooked to it, I was able to snag the squirrel with a rogue and I caught those 4 bass and another one hit my rogue as I reeled all that in. Woulda kept em but that dang slot got me:smokin:

In Golden Meadow this year, had a redfish come up and eat my friends popping cork, never did see it come up either

My father-in-law swears up and down that he once cut open a catfish with a whole cat(feline) inside. To this day he wont eat blue cats.

Ha, I caught one in the Oua****a River and it had a whole blob of grease in its stomach. Looked like axle grease, we were fishing near a barge and I guess it fell in the water, I gave that one to my uncle

Minden man years ago got bit on the thumb getting ready to fillet a bass, stuck his thumb in his mouth and bingo.

Caught one in the neighborhood pond I used to fish, about 25 pounds, had a puppy in it that drowned about 10 years ago.

dmtfish 10-18-2011 07:22 PM

That's nuts! Saw one the other day in the ship channel....My buddy said "you see that snake?" I thought he was crazy till we turned around and I saw him swimming way up out the water....I said the only snake that swims out the water like that is a moccasin! Sure enough when we got close to him he tried to get in the boat! Bout 4 foot long and thick thick thick! i would have thought the lake would be too salty for em but guess not!
