If my management strategy is working like I hope it is, those bluegills on the nests will be a minimum of 7" in length, hopefully 8-10". It would take a mighty big LMB to forage on those. What I do see quite often, is groups of smaller bass cruising the nesting sites and picking off those smaller BG that are always hanging around, hoping for an opportunity to rob nests of eggs.


"Forget pounds and ounces, I'm figuring displacement!"

If we accept that: MBG(+)FGSF(=)HBG(F1)
And we surmise that: BG(>)HBG(F1) while GSF(<)HBG(F1)
Would it hold true that: HBG(F1)(+)AM500(x)q.d.(=)1.5lbGRWT?
PB answer: It depends.
