This is my personal experience. Shotgun with high power #6 shot is the only way to go. I carry an old single shot 20ga. I tried .22 and .17 but the water will deflect or stop the bullet easily. Also good chance of ricochet. Extremely wary fish. After shooting a couple of times around a feeder it would be weeks before I would get another shot at one. I wasn't there trying everyday either tho.
