A little more on this topic.

We and others in northern area have the larger gizzard shad eating fish pellets along with the bgill. This behavior does make the large shad more vulnerable to pedation by large bass.

Many of the other experts and forum participants are still very busy "in the field" until colder weather sets in. You won't see much inpit from them until things slow down for them. Most of my time is lab work so I have evenings available to "do the forum stuff". Maybe you can renew this topic in January?.
