Maybe the pivotal word is "small" in the statement. I took that to mean big LMB prefer chasing "big" tilapia. I will be interested to see Bob's answer if he sees the post.
Bill do larger bass not necessarily feed on small blue-gill either?
I am just wondering if there is something unique about small tilapia vs other small forage fish?
Dang Zep!
You know I seldom know what I'm talking about!
My 1 cent....LMB are opportunistic feeders but they are also "couch potatoes" and lazy. If they can catch a large meal (bigger Tilapia) and go back to just being lazy and watching "Where's Nemo" on their big screen TV, that is what they will prefer to do. If no big meals are available, then they will have to spend time and energy chasing a lot of little meals instead.
I don't want to assume this is what Bob meant by his statement though so let's wait and see if he responds.
