Leeches for bass?

Does anyone use leeches for largemouth bass?

Does anyone know if bass even eat leeches. I'm sure they may strike it but I'm wondering if they'll actually consume it.

Also, what about snails that look like this...




Got a small pond out back at my parents house that is loaded with snails, aquatic insects, LEECHES, and frogs/tadpoles. My stepdad threw 3 bass in there we got from a pond that was drying out and they made it through the winter. He threw out a rapala minno that was like 5" long (striper lure) just to see if the reel needed lubed and he caught one. It's about 16" or so now.... right out of winter and the thing was in good shape.

We saw at least one other strike the surface a few minutes later so I guess 2 of em made it.
