I'm in a far cooler climate, and I can only keep trout in my pond from about mid-October to early June. They only grow a few inches during that time. If I put 12-inch trout into the pond in October, I get 14 inch trout in May, and they've eaten a lot of pellets by then.

Thanks,
Ken


Hi Ken, I believe that I got good of growth due to pond full of late CNBG spawn, because they got off of pellets and couldn�t be caught until last week on �Stubby� flies.
Don�t know any other reason because feeder off most of the time during this period.

I stocked 25 trout early winter in � acre pond from Overton, who supplies them to customers for fun and food fishin�, until they are either caught or will die late spring.

Gotta have to start fishin��.!
