Depending on the temperature, it takes about 8 hours for fish to digest fish food.

Very interesting. So if the main goal is to grow big LMB, frequent feeding would usually be best so as to maximize forage the bass could swallow. If the main goal is big BG, less frequent but more intense feeding is appropriate.
