I grind pellets in an old blender but it is even easier to soak them until they are mush and toss them in the edge of the pond among the weeds so you can observe them feeding. I feed my fatheads this way and they are always hanging in that same spot looking for food, I have even noticed that area of the pond has a larger average size than the rest of the shoreline of the pond due to the feed. I was shocked and awed by the size of the FH's I was able to trap there using pellets in a small cloth hung in the minnow trap overnight, similar to the crab pots baited on deadliest catch, and I caught amazingly plump minnows with fat bellys as well as their heads, males had spawing colors and females full of eggs, I promplty stocked my forage pond with 3 or 4 dozen of these beauties. Soak them in water and enjoy the show.
