as far as a LARGE bass chasing down an "easy meal" in some peanut bunker, i think it is not in there best interest. a bass must get more out of its prey than it expends in hunting it. which provdes more nutrition, chasing down a very agile peanut bunker or cruising the bottom looking to slurp up a 1# lobster? i know a lot of the lobster is shell, but i would still argue that the nutrition received is greater than a peanut bunker.
