Habitat The large mouthed black bass is not as aristocratic as the small mouthed and will do well in still, weedy waters or in slow, sedge-bordered rivers although he is often found in the same lake or stream as the small mouthed. Under such conditions you will usually find him in the weedier portion, which he prefers. Food The teeth of the large mouthed bass are the same as those of the small mouthed and his feeding habits are similar but not quite as dainty. He adds to his diet such food as is naturally found in his habitat, such as snakes, warm water minnows and young fishes, not even passing by young muskrats, or half-grown water birds. Frogs are also included in his diet by most anglers, probably because they make excellent bass bait, and he will eat them when he gets the chance, which is not often. His habitat does not generally compel him to be as active as the small mouthed which inclines him toward sluggishness. |
