throwing fish on beach

[Druu]

I agree that the green crab is a problem, but was just pointing out that there are a few predators out there. I think Japanese Shore Crabs that came over in ballast water are more of a problem.

I've caught almost all of my blue crabs in the Atlantic itself except for a few in brackish on Assateague Island in Maryland. Got a few delicious soft shells that time.

All the water in and around Assateague is salt, there is no fresh water on the island, therefore no brackish. There are blue crabs there, and I'm not denying it, but the majority of the populations migrate back to more brackish water.

I mean I'm sure there are predators, but I'm sure that SOMETHING out there will eat a snakehead, or any other invasive species. However, that doesn't mean it's going to become a permanent fixture in it's diet and even if it does, it's a bottom - up effect in the food web, which is just as big an issue.
