Great info, I appreciate your inputs. It looks like I am in the ballpark. I have taken food to the pond 3 days now in the evening and tossed a little here and there around were the feeder will be mounted, but no takers except for the FHM's that enjoy pushing the pellets around until they dissolve.

I have some of the stocked fish schooling in a couple of places, but they get spooked a bit when the food hits the water and then they kinda return and sit there, apparently fat and happy. I know they are not fat because I would guest they are on the low side of the relative weight chart. Some had sunken bellies while most were just trim and none were fat. Maybe they have already filled up on natural forage and pellets aren't that interesting. I'll keep at it.


Fish on!,
