Eric, that brings up a question: Does it matter what kind of feed the BG eat that are subsequently eaten by the LMB?
If one kind of feed contains superior nutrients, of course it should grow bigger BG. But my question is will that BG, ounce for ounce, be more nutritious for LMB than others?
An excellent question ! I would guess that a well conditioned fish is a better food source than one the same size but underfed. Because all food is broken down into its basic components and then used by the fish, most well conditioned fish are equal in quality. Probably some minor differences but I have not seen any info on that.
That of course assumes "well conditioned". If all the forage fish in the pond are obese (containing to much fat) then that could pose other problems.
