Yup, very much wild and freaking smart with all those catch and release going on! Those hybrids would follow the angler as he/she walks along the coastline casting to new water. Those are PhD pbass, I swear they can recognize the brand of hooks I used on my flies and lures! Here's the best part, they won't eat our offering, but will readily pounce on those startled little fishes hiding on the shoreline when we are walking clumsily along the shoreline. Smart eh? Wait till you come across Temensis, I suspect that they could damn well rule the world and make us their slaves if they have hands and legs.
Mono, they just hit anything that moves fast enough... my kind of bass after a hard day work! Yes I fish for them almost daily....
