Can you adjust the pattern / distance a TH feeder throws?
I would like it to throw a shorter distance and wider if possible but wider is not as important.
My pond is small and is twice as long as it is wide. From the front of my dock to the other bank is only 40'. I would like to have the feeder throwing straight forward off the front of the dock but if I do so it will throw feed on the other bank.

my sweeney has a speed control, but i am not sure about the th. if not i bet you could rivet a thin piece of sheet metal to it to control the pattern.

I would add some height to the back legs, tilting the feeder in a downward position, whish would force the THF to throw more directly into the pond. Maybe add a brick under the back legs, but be sure to tie down the feeder so it does not fall into the pond. That would be a mess for sure.
Do not judge me by the politicians in my City, State or Federal Government.

I've done the same leg adjustment thing. I use a 2X4, and screw it to the deck, and then screw the TH legs to the 2X4.
If your TH feeder has what I call the "bank legs", you can adjust the throw angles there too.
