[QUOTE="Allen, post: 109015, member: 389"] I've seen firsthand what large snappers can do to carp trapped overnight in the bag of a seine. Holy crap for carnage! Most fish escaped once the snappers attacked, but before holes got torn in the bag they would just swim right up to the buffalos and take a single bite out of them. Some of the bites were "clean cut" hunks of meat missing and as wide as my damn hand. I have lived with a very great respect for the power of their bite ever since. I was maybe 16 yrs old at the time and the day we bagged those excess fish was the same day I had to wade around in with the fish throwing the snappers out. Must have been around 6 of them and I had never before (or since) seen one of the size of the top three. This was down in a bay just north of Deepwater. [/QUOTE]
