The observation certainly peaked my interest! 2 of the perch were stuffed full of pellets, 3 others had some smaller clumps of them in their bellies. We caught them sllooooowwww jigging redworms across the bottom of my deep (~11ft) end. So those 2 that were stuffed with pellets were still after a redworm snack.
