Habitat data were also collected in the areas where each individual was videotaped. The net rate of energy gained (J·min−1) increased as water depths decreased and mean water-column velocities increased. This relationship remained statistically significant even when we assumed that consumption was as little as 40% of our original estimates, and that respiratory costs were three times higher than we suspected. The net rate of energy gained by juvenile smallmouth bass was only affected by the characteristics of the area that they searched and not the foraging tactics they employed.
