Are you asking about if Bluegill, and other fish, come a running when they see their meal ticket arrive at the pond?

If so, yes, fish gather when they see me approaching the pond, and then follow me around the pond to where I generally feed from; and then they wait 5+ minutes while I soak the feed.

If the questions was related to feeding bread, I've never fed bread to the fish, but instead only fish feed.


Excerpt from Robert Crais' "The Monkey's Raincoat:"
"She took another microscopic bite of her sandwich, then pushed it away. Maybe she absorbed nutrients from her surroundings."

Used to go fishing with one of my best buddies when we were just broke high school kids.

We usually fished first for our target species, typically LMB or catfish. If no fish were biting, we would start pinching off the crusts of our sandwiches and rig up to fish for carp.

After missing a few carp strikes our area of "bread chummed water" started to get pretty thick with bread particles. At that point you would start getting a carp strike every time your bread ball started sinking. I don't know if we eventually drew the hungriest carp over to the feeding area, or if the action of fish striking was a trigger to induce other fish to strike.

I believe it was the latter, because sometimes we would then catch a channel cat or a bullhead on a bread ball, when we had previously failed to catch any cats on worms or stinkbait!
