Brook Trout again - 04/30/23 02:35 PM
1/2 acre pond, 12 feet deep, western N.Y. Stocked last year with 2-3 “ brook trout, crabs, snails, clams and fathead minnows.
Trout are doing very well and I have some that must be close to fifteen inches.
I have been feeding them Zieglers large floating pellets but mistakenly picked up small floating pellets on my last trip to Zetts in Pa. Does anyone know if the feed is the same protein content as the larger pellets?
Also started feeding them fifteen dozen night crawlers a week ( I buy them from an Amish kid for a dollar a dozen) just to give them a variety in their diet .
It doesn’t appear as though they are eating any of the fat heads which kind of surprises me.
Any thoughts or opinions welcome.
