Thanks guys -
The LMB was the same size as the SMB when I put him in - I'd say about 4". He's growing faster than the SMB - Most of whom are 8-10". The LMB is so visable - I see him cruising almost any time I walk the pond edge. They are ALL keying in on the tadpoles and frogs right now. I don't see the SMB as often - but I can catch then easily now - last year I only caught a couple.
I suspect the LMB (I call him Larry) uses the BG's as forage better than the SMB have been able to -
I need to get some gravel & Rock Piles in. I've got a clay bottom - with lots of crusher-run type gravel mixed in - probably good for bass spawning - but I have very few rock piles for the SMB fry.
