It may be that tadpoles are not as tasty as minnows. If both were sitting on the table, would you prefer Fillet Mingon or Butt Steak?
Now, would you not eat Butt Steak if that was the only thing on the table?
Or, would you run 1/2 mile to eat fillet vs. just sitting down to a dinner of butt steak?
I've seen smaller LMB almost end up on the bank after chasing after some of the tadpoles that were in very shallow water.
