Harvest - A Success Story | The Ultimate Bass Fishing Resource Guide® LLC: "biologist Bob Lusk.
One 50-acre impoundment in Texas called Pinto Valle Lake produced excellent spawns of bass, with no survival of young. The bass population ranged in size from eight to 10, and every fish was 20-to-30 percent underweight.
   The forage base was empty. No bluegill, no shiners, no nothing. Reason: The lake had too many bass, too little food. The bass could not grow. To survive, the bass leaped from the water to catch dragon flies. On any summer evening, just before dark, people would drive to the lake and set up their lawn chairs, just to watch the bass jump for insects. This makes for cheap entertainment, but poor growth-rates for largemouth."
