I understand why our northern guys are cutting back the feeder times, but with water temps in the upper 70's, I'm having a hard time understanding the diminished feeding down here. Our water's setting at 76-80 degrees, and I've doubled my feeder throw times as our cnbg are gorging with the cooler water temps.

Also, my big pond has the same brown water with low visibility as described by others. I never see that in the summer months, but the same thing happened here this spring several times. To the best of my knowledge, every time this has happens is after a algae bloom.

Question. Could our warm water coupled with cooler rainfall kill the algae bloom and cause the brown tinted water?
