Bigger Fish

Great question. Certain times of year the fish group by size and other times they are all mixed up. During the spawn you can find fish of all sizes together. The bigger females will be right next to the smaller males. The summer and fall is often when I find fish of the same size feeding together. When the larger fish in a lake find the best feeding opportunities, they will often force the smaller fish out. When you are catching mostly smaller fish, that is usually a sign to me that these fish are on secondary pattern and bigger fish are doing something else.
