The rule of thumb is not to put more food in the pond than what will be consumed in 15 minutes. You can put less in, but more is not recommended. Get a thermometer that you can use to take water temps with. A pool thermometer on a string will do. I have noticed that trout in my pond slow down or stop feeding when surface water temps get to the low 70°F range.

But, using the 15 minute rule will allow you to let the fish tell you if they are hungry or not.
