That is an awesome pic. We have a box at my parents on a lake and had some Woodies hatch. They were jumping out of the box and looked like paratroopers gliding down onto the water. It was pretty short lived though because as they were swimming across bass started blowing up the water and devouring them. Craziest thing I have seen as I didn't know a bass would eat them. Only about 2/10 survived.

That's a cool pic and crazy story about the bass eating them.
