I've never done a camp that relied on fish and frogs for food. Although... you can make Fish Sticks right away if you do this. This would provide a nice healing source. Really, it would provide one of the best sources of healing in the game right off the bat... I gotta try this... is it much harder than bunnies? What do you do when winter comes and the frogs and fishies are gone?
Fuck I just realized that the frogs won't be around during winter... I guess its not a fool proof plan. For summer its def better than bunnies. The ponds yield a lot more than bunny holes do, and frog legs are way more useful as they can make all of the morsel recipes in addition to a healing recipe specific to frogs.
It's probably not the greatest camp for handling the first winter, but the yield is so high that if you get a few drying racks going you can hoard enough jerky to last through the second. Like literally you can plop like 10 traps around 3 ponds and most of them will be full at dusk.
Unrelated: do you bother with transplanting grass? Or is it better to just do a massive savannah run every now and then? I suppose you need to run for poo anyway.
