I think dense populations of cnbg have also contributed to the lmb being harder to catch. That might hold true with Northern LMB as well.

Studies show that many of the trophy LMB are Northern Fal. mixes and they do not exhibit the same degree of non-catchability.

And this is why I am introducing the feed trained Northern lmb to the pond. Placed an order with Todd Overton day before yesterday. Shorty, I have to agree with you, but at some point, I would think the lmb will catch up and reduce the cnbg numbers. A couple of years ago I learned that feeding cnbg will cause them to grow faster to where the lmb can not eat them due to their size. And then they multiply

Tracy, I've been very pleased so far with the feed trained Northern LMB. Stocked 100 last fall, averaged around 12 inches. Every one I've caught has been fat, relative weight over 100.
Yesterday we caught a 17 - 18 incher, though not entirely sure that wasn't a LSL bass from the June 2016 stocking.
