I do a lot of fly fishing for large mouth bass in the golf ponds/lakes
in my area of southern FL. Occasionally, I see and otter or two in the
waters. Questions are, will otters eat the larger bass and can they
clean out the lake of fish? Thanks.

If my memory serves me, isn't Florida one of those areas of the world where
the bass grow particularly large and perhaps the otters may need to be
fearful of the bass? G Up here in the Pacific NW, I have seen a quite a
few otters over the years, and I have yet to see one with a fish in his/her
(Politically Correct) mouth bigger than a six or so inches. I imagine a
google search will provide you with the data you seek.

By the way, don't the alligators help control the otter population some?
