Is it a case of wanting them or settling for what they can get? I suspect the latter. That said, lobster tails were the prefered bait and chum at the old bass clubs around the turn of the century, and accounted for some very impressive daytime fish (60+ lbs) in the middle of the summer and within spitting distance of shore.

i dont know about that. because the diet switches in open water. you would think it would be harder for a fish to catch bunker in open water as opposed to trapping them inland pockets. but the inland food of choice is crabs and lobsters..

not saying they wont mow down injured fish.. but crabs and the like seem to be the way to go.


and then i find this video..
it's stripers eating french fries...
