Tonka carp eating zebras- don't know extent

[popolarbear]

i do know on lakes with zebra mussels carp will feed more comfortably around fishing lines and not get spoked as easily. they also will crush a hook on occasion by accident while feeding and not even notice it. i have reeled in my line to find my hook snapped by the pharyngeal teeth stick is talking about. they are specialized organ used to crush seeds and shells.... yes they do feed on mussels. as do some sunfish(shell crackers) that can get very large once mussels arrive. i feel tonka sunnies are getting larger, as are the rock bass. milf is almost gone in the lake, completely killed out by the mussels.
