The two of many trout we caught on the last trip at the Nell was full of minnow as was the bass and the brown you seen had a crayfish in it throat as well..The bass had deep bellies from the top of the back to the bottom..
They looked short for there size, the numbers of fish and size dropped in one year, the same year the reg's was changed and when you do catch a bass over 14" it is wide across the back and in great shape..Nothing I have seen with any of the bass shows lack of food..
But some lakes and studies of lakes like Deer Creek and Jordanelle in rivers and lakes in the east and north east parts showed that over harvest of the bigger bass makes the lakes with small bass they get up to a small keeper size and not any bigger..Even some lakes in Texas and Florida just to mention a few others witch there are many..I like many do not like slot limits but they work on some waters not all..
Look them up, you know how dumb I am with this, Even some shows on tv talked about this, along with some bass tournaments tv shows have the same Info..
All the other places talk about this but Utah's dwr..WHY??
That's not quiet right some of the biologists have said slots will work but was over ruled..
