I have noticed the same thing with some looking almost weak and others that mean eating machine look. You find the same thing at Bear Lake. I think it is simply some turn on to eating fish earlier but that is only my personal opinion. I have promised myself to let those big meat eating bruisers go. They are the only hope for Stawberry. At Bear Lake they clip the fins so you can differentiate the wild vs. planters and for what it is worth almost %90 of the huge fat healthy cutts have been the wild ones. There have been a few with clipped fins though.
