Smallmouth in Utah

[gstott]

All the information I'm finding shows relatively equal growth rates between the two species when raised in the same waters. Largemouth definitely don't grow as quickly as trout, especially in the frigid waters of southeast Idaho. What I was trying to convey is that habitat and forage seem to be larger factors in growth than harvest. These two reservoirs are in roughly the same geographic area, but one has better forage and cover for fry.
