That's a guess, and it may be right. But the food needed is always relative to how many bass are being fed.
Measured growth rates or measured relative weights is a more definitive assessment of whether there is enough food to feed the bass population. Most LDWF reports include data on relative weights and/or growth rates in LMB. The reports for Calcasieu did not have this data, so whether or not there is an issue is an open question.
