UPDATE:

Walked the entire SMB pond late afternoon yesterday, started throwing AM 500 in new places. Actually stimulated some feeding, got very excited, freaked out and proceeded to shovel more pellets at them than they could eat in a week. Typical TJ thinking...."If a little is good, a lot is great!"

Okay...so, good start - now I need to return daily and get them into a routine and try to temper my exuberance and be more efficient with the feeding. Also, set my traps last night...problem is I'm getting so many tadpoles they literally STUFF the cages and I have no minnows present. Those BF Tadpoles are pellet hogs. I'm going to need to refine my tactics somehow in order to move forage into the SMB pond.

Thought I'd share the good news. Will keep you apprised.
