Your logic is sound.

Our reason is cost and goals. Right now feeding about 2 bags a week from 4 feeders over 34 acres. If I went up to 10 lbs it would take 10 bags +. Over a feeding season that is a lot. Plus our goal is supplemental feeding not feeding to satiation. If we did that we would have lots more BG than we want and that can be a problem. Our goal is balance not trophy BG or LMB.

Feeding without adequate harvest leads to more fish not just bigger fish. We don't hit out harvest #s real well so we don't want to make it 5 X.
