Large BG do not dine at Feeders for a week or two during spawn. Should feeding be reduced at this time? Smaller BG still seem to consume all feed in several minutes. Three feeders on 9ac pond with aerator systems. Feeding Aquamax 600.Approx 75-100 lbs per week.

If they are eating the food then don't reduce the amount. The small fish will get in better condition and the breeders will catch up in due course.

Yeah I do not turn my feeder down. It actually lets the 2 to 6 inchers have a little more to eat for a while. Them bigger BG can be bullies at the feeder that's for sure!! Mine are pushing each other around and jockeying for position all the time!! lol

The only difference between a rut and a Grave is the depth. So get up get out of that rut and get moving!! Time to work!!
