BSF as fish bait
I’ll be working on this page soon! Until I compile the information you might like to see a few videos of fish eating BSF grubs in my pond.
Here are a few fish I’ve caught using BSF grubs:
The bullhead weighed 1.5 pounds and was a surprise because I didn’t stock them in my pond. The other fish is a warmouth which I did stock and it was about 6 inches long. Update; since catching the bullhead above I’ve also caught a 1 pound, 15 ounce bullhead. (I could have just said 2 pounds 
)
July, 2010 – I recently caught a channel catfish that I stocked in one of our ponds using a BSF larva as bait. I didn’t weigh it but by comparing to several fish I have weighed I estimate it was about 2.5 pounds and around 15 inches long. I rarely feed his particular pond with BSF.
These videos take me back to my fishing days in my youth, they are incredibly relaxing! I find fish mesmerising, could feed them all day and be perfectly content!
Can u feed lava to dogs
Hi Kat,
I’m fairly sure you can. I know of one person who fed them to her cats by mixing them into canned food. This idea will probably repulse some people who are accustomed to thinking about their pets as people, but insects are very nutritious and are included in the diets of a wide range of animals. In fact, most people on this planet eat insects including larvae.
hi Jerry, i was wondering if it was worth trying to use BSF to catch freshwater trout or redfin? i’m from Australia and iv’e had a heap of them pop up in my compost bin. any help would be awesome. thanks.
