Default Do little bass swim faster than big bass?

I had to do some shopping today, and I was browsing in the fishing
section of Wal Mart. I was looking for my favorite worms, but they
didn't have any, but I spotted some old "rooster tails" that I had fond
memories of....I have caught almost every variety of fish that swim in
both fresh and salt water on them .

I bought a couple, a whtie, and a chartruese. When I got home I put the
chartruese on one of the rods. I don't know about other lakes, but the
bass here "love" a chartruse rooster tail! But what I noticed was, the
faster the retrieve, the smaller the bass...real dinks! The slower the
retrieve, bigger bass...still nothing over a pound or so, but bigger.

Does this mean that smaller bass swim faster than larger bass? grin

Actually I'm serious...almost feel ike I'm learning the "game" all over
again !

New lake. New Game. On a slow day walking the Gila River as a kid when I
couldn't buy a bite I used to be able to get a few dinks by absolutely
ripping a rooster tail or small Kastmaster through the water.

Had I known what I know now I would have been flipping a jig or creature
bait to every little brushy undercut.
