Curious - if the "cracker" tribe feed mostly on mollusks, why strike the Kastmaster. Purely reaction?

Most local lakes with public access in this area are infested with zebra mussels.....only punkinseeds, redears, and gill-crackers have molar crush plates, and can effectively feed on them.

It will be mounted with the 11"....above a shell bed with zebra mussels.
