Maybe the rmw's just let out a lesser vibration of this-is-odd which is less appealing. Had a pike in the Bow go for a white I was reeling in, I let out a vibration of I'll-need-to-change my-underwear-when-I-get-home and had the benefit of vocal chords that could have shamed Pavarotti when it hit,, river pike are fast, like WoW fast.

In my KFC metaphor I kind of answered this.
In the wild, the quality of your food is very important, second only to the time it takes to 'handle' it.
Trout provide more calories per weight than whites and are more difficult for a bull to catch.
That makes them the most premium meal in the river, and an opportunity they pounce on. Literally.
