Interesting but I think it emphasizes a point that is often overlooked; all fish share a lot of common traits (or DNA) and behave in exactly the same way given the same set of environmental conditions. Whether its a 10 inch rainbow, 30 inch striper, 80lb gian trevally or 600 lb hamerhead shark, they will all take up station and feed lazilly if conditions are right. There seems to be some programming that avoids unnecessary expenditure of energy when feeding - at least it seems that way but maybe it isnt.

Someone once made the observation that "big fish" don't become "big" by chasing food. This seems to make sense, although the industry would have us believe otherwise :)
