Title: Griffin slays vicious,carnivorous,predator

     Ive seen frogs attack other frogs and big old fishing lures but this guy was just plain old nasty.Besides the mouse when the boys and I were cutting off their legs we felt something else hard in his gut.Cut it open and pulled out a big crayfish.I would have given him a pass if Ida seen what he was trying to swallow but he was facing away.I shot another big one right after him but didnt get pics cause I was so caught up I soaked my camera.Luckily it is drying nicely and the LCD came back on today.Missed a couple more but thats just as fun in my book.I shot them with a 145 Hex head on an MFX 500 and I have to say I like em, much better than judos for big old predators like these.  (http://i122.photobucket.com/albums/o244/2crazyboys_photos/dscn1445.jpg)

That is cool.  I used to hunt frogs with my son.  We rigged up an arrow and line for a fishing pole- he would reel them in. Even got a snapper or two.
