YP at 1" in mid-June in the Midwest US are growing slightly slower than optimum. Litl-Strike will not grow YP very well - too low of protein. YP should have 40%+ protein. Non-pellet trained YP at 1"-2" will live primarily on zooplankton and immature insect larvae. Above 2" to 5" they eat primarily invertebrates with some fish fry based on what is present. Above 5" YP feed more and more on small 1" minnows if they are available and lots of invertebrates.
