Reading between the lines a little on this. Is the SMB/YP/RES or LMB/GB/RES a mouth size type limit?

SMB/YP used because the SMB can eat the juvenile YP but their mouth size leaves the adult YP for future spawning?

Similarly, LMB/BG as some point the mature BG become more than only the monster LMB can take out?


On YP spawns it looks like the ribbons of eggs contain around 100,000 eggs.

On BG spawns there are multiple through the spring and summer to keep recruitment in the pond.

Assuming that larger mature fish spawn more than first year sexually mature.
