Prey Detection by a Stepwise Visual Template Matching Mechanism

Join us as we discuss a recent study on trout feeding behavior and size of food. We discuss:

• The motivation for conducting this study
• Collecting trout from the South Holston
• How many cockroaches a trout will eat
• Trout difficulties in switching between food sizes
• Potential impacts of biodiversity on trout feeding behavior

Check out the research paper
“Prey Detection by a Stepwise Visual Template Matching Mechanism”

and the accompanying Fly Fisherman Magazine article
“Now I See You: How Trout Appetite Shifts from Hatch to Hatch”
