Hand Throw arrived yesterday. The HSB didn't show much interest in it, but it brought doom to the young BG/GAM/GSH who swam up for a nibble.

I'll continue to offer the Hand Throw. In a week, if they still aren't eating it, I'll seal the bag and try it again next summer.
They can eat BG pellets until the Bass pellets are back in stock.

Water temps are still on the high side, so no sampling to measure gape until it cools off a bit.
