Looked at several studies comparing SMB vs WE and LMB vs WE that contained lots of info on stomach contents , growth , energetics, water temps and food competition. Very extensive data - no mention/indication that WE had stronger stomach acid. They did provide that the amount of inverts , insects and small fish were what WE consumed. Stomach contents indicated far more insects and inverts than LMB or SMB. See below from another source - FishBase.
