Reading this reminded me of watching them feed the fish at BPS. They have some big bass in that aquarium, including a 12 lb-er, and they always just hang by the edge of the tank and wait for something to drift their way, while everything else is out in the middle fighting over scraps.

Thanks for the interesting posts. Makes nice reading on a rainy evening.
