I have to use 100% natural forage in my growout ponds. The guys I know that pellet feed the lmb don't like FLA. They have zero benefit from the strain and tons of headaches. They feed their strains for 18 months pellet only and off to the food market they go. The FLA are a superior pond strain no doubt, but making money raising them? Small scale I give them all you can eat gambusia and other assorted junk minnows. I feel your pain.
