I am interested in finding out the preferred diets of the larger gastropods
conch (Strombus spp.) and whelks (Busycon and Rapana spp.).  Also, does
anyone know of commercial fisheries for these species (except the whelk
fishery along the US east coast) that use baited traps to harvest them?
What baits are used?  Thanks.  Bob
