Now sure what "gape limit" means exactly- googled it but the definitions provided get pretty thick....I'm assuming it refers to the size prey which the predator will see as potential prey? What they can comfortably consume? In other words, a 5-7" HSB, for example, won't see a similar-sized SBS as prey, but a 12" HSB would. Yes?
In which case, that would support my tentative plan to get 5-7" SBS in spring, along with 10 lb. FHM and 5 lbs. GSH- and 5-7" HSB in fall....(or should I maybe go 8-10" on the HSB? Is there any downside to starting out with the HSB at 5-7"?) In case it matters, I'm not in any hurry to get the HSB up to larger sizes...happy to let things play out.
