John never herd of cave crickets but I do and have seen Camel Crickets and I would think the fish would chump them. Thanks for the info.

WOW ! I looked them up Dick. Camel Crickets /Cave Crickets are the same critter .Both names make sense .They do have a hump back like a Camel ,and the Cave  reference points to their habitation of dark ,damp places like my garage .
