Not sure if it means anything but a lot of the trophy fish I mount as a taxidermist have empty stomachs. The theory is really big fish eat a large food item(s) and don't eat again until the food is digested. That may be part of the reason they are difficult to catch as they are off feed a good part of the time.


Aren't a lot of them caught during spawning when they are more protective than hungry?

The largest ones I have caught where in August and September.
