I assume the red tail shiner was for some reason an easy meal for that BG due to shiner injury, senility, special circumstances or "bad luck".


Very good assumption Bill! We bought the red tailed shiners to catch LMB, the previous day we were bobber lobbing fathead minnows for LMB and catching mostly BG so the next day we bought larger bait to avoid catching BG again, we were suprised to catch mostly BG again even with the much larger red tail shiners.
