Largemouths may become average in size for fish, often weighing in at anywhere between 1 to 10 pounds. Largemouth bass need warm water to survive. They love water temperatures in the 80s and can even withstand water nearing boiling temperatures in the 90s.
Largemouths have an interesting diet.
Because they can reach a considerable size, they often like hunting ducks and snakes. They'll really eat any kinds of small animals they can get their large mouths on. When they can't find any of these animals swimming around, they'll eat fish and other aquatic creatures. These fish like to be with other largemouths while they're growing up. They think there's safety in numbers, to a certain extent.
