      The toads have glands that produce a bufotoxin that makes the bass sick. They are reluctant to eat them.

      Love the idea of him destroying those toads as long he don't get poisoned 😎
      Clyde seemed to have taken one down no problem. usually by the time they're in their throat is when they exert the foul taste. I'm surprised he didn't spit him back out! 😳

    I watch every single video you produce ( same day). Before it was pure joy to watch your progression....now it seems more important to see your videos, to see life hasn't stop for everyone ( unfortunately I live in CT) this state was bad enough before all this whatever. I look forward to seeing new videos from you and hope all is well with you and all your fine viewers .....we will return and we hopefully will cherish the little freedoms we all enjoy here in this great country!

    A decently wide creek maybe like 3-6 inches deep at the deepest pool connecting the two ponds, giving the turtles and shiners an area and also giving the chance of fry refuge (bluegill?)

    Add some Elodea Anacharis, some Sagittaria and some narrow leaf Valisinaria to the pond for more hiding places for any potential fry. Plan the val near the waterfall, and plant the rest around the bottom near the rock walls, maybe add some cabomba as well. All of these are native to the US. FYI turtles will eat water lilies, you might want to add more of those into the pond as well. More lilies will help shade te pond to keep it cooler in the summer.

    I was tinking about Bonny getting run off her nest last week and it occured to me that she is going to face greater pressure in your pond then a wild bass in some big lake. The preditors in a lake can be run off and they may stay gone long enough for Bonny to have a break because there is more opportunity at other nests but in Bonny's case once she runs of one of the bluegills or crappy, theres nowhere for preditors to go. The pressure was constant. You may want to consider helping her out.
