Dave,

We have about 17 of these in a 2 acre pond from 2 stockings. I want to get the older ones out and replace them with juveniles. I've heard that banana peels fished about 6 to 8 inches beneath a cork works. Do you have any trees that shed seed or leaves into the pond? If you have cotton woods or crabapples try some of the seeds or blossoms floated on a light line. Ours will take floating feed but I can't get very close without spooking them.

Good luck,

Chip
