Thanks for the tip, Eric. The price makes me gulp -- I'm doing okay, but no billionaire. Still, would love to pull it off! May PM you if I can ever convince my better half...

Today my wife & visiting mother went to pond. Only had two sacks of fish food at Purina store, so deployed them in my feeders. More frustration with the feeders, as one year old one on the dock ceased working.

The first few years, every new feeder worked fine, the only exception being when the lower housing got flooded. The last few years, new feeders have a 50 percent chance of lasting two years, even though not flooded & much more expensive. Not sure why.

No cormorants, geese, nor otters. I plan to move a working feeder from a corner of the dam to the dock, want fish to keep coming there. Not seeing the HSB nor LMB smash feed much anymore, just CNBG.
