I had a Bass in a fishtank once. We would feed it a dozen 1 1/2 inch
goldfish every week or so. It would get them all in less than a
minute. Glittering scales would puff from the gills slits in a pretty
cloud.

I have a cousin in Michigan with a pond behind her house that they
stock with bass just for entertainment, sort of a real world fish
tank. They feed the bass every evening just before sunset, some kind
of fish food pellets that they buy. The bass show up right on
schedule and go into a feeding frenzy when the pellets hit the water.
Some of the bass have recognizable features and get named accordingly.
