I would say that once HSB are 'older,' they're more prone to hit live minnows/shiners or feed pellets. Excerpt from Robert Crais' "The Monkey's Raincoat:" "She took another microscopic bite of her sandwich, then pushed it away. Maybe she absorbed nutrients from her surroundings."

Lefty's Deceiver, Clouser Minnows, any of Enrico's minnow shaped lures(Peanut Butter), and Fish-Skull streamers. Always shop local, but if nothing's close, then these are good places to shop. https://www.madriveroutfitters.com/c-239-streamers.aspx https://flymenfishingcompany.com/collections/fish-skull-flies AL

So far the only thing I can seem to catch them on is pellet imitation flies and egg patterns around the feeders. I read that to OP wanting something other than pellet sized bait/lures. SS do work well though. AL
