Do big largemouth only eat big baits?
No — a giant eats a small, easy meal without a second thought, which is why finesse gear catches trophies too. What big baits actually do is filter: a large profile draws fewer total strikes but selects for the fish with the gape and confidence to attack it, and it may pull a dominant fish off cover that ignored smaller offerings. The honest energy math is that big fish prefer meals worth the effort, so bigger baits raise your average — they just are not a magic exclusion of small fish or a requirement for big ones.
