Fantastic fishing today despite chill. Big HSB, trout, LMB up to 7 plus pounds. Even the CNBG are beginning to bite.
Question is to what extent do I owe some of this to felling tree close to my dock? Most big LMB were caught there, though HSB weren't. Dock with feeder is usually good for CNBG and LMB, but the bite for lunker mommas was best I have had. Tree has only been down a few days, could it really be that much help?

1.) Bass like structure, since they are ambush predators.
2.) The LMB have been watching the CNBG feed in the open water around the dock, but were unable to successfully stalk their prey. After years of seething with resentment they finally noticed a large tree down in the water just feet from the edge of the pellet dispersal pattern from the feeder.
The LMB general then assigned sniper positions based on seniority. The best spots among the branches for concealment and then sudden attack were given to the girthiest bass. After the bass launched several days of lightning attacks on the CNBG, they withdrew once again to their deep concealment in the newly felled tree.
Today you flipped a lure into the deadly defiladed positions of the "lunker mommas". The rest is, as they say, history!
1.) or 2.), it depends!

I have heard guys tell stories about a big bass coming up and eating a blackbird at the edge of the pond.
When anthropic's fish story started, I was hoping it was going to end with a bass large enough to hit the goose he was using as bait!
(I am definitely an optimist!)
