Thanks again, for the additional replies. All good info! FWIW, a 2 lb LMB taken from the pond today had a 3.5" BG in it's stomach so that is confirmation that the LMB-BG interaction is working, at least to some degree. Sounds like what I need to do is to make my feeder racoon-proof and put it back in service. I took it down because I could not keep the racoons from gorging on the AquaMax. I think I can safely install some electric fence wire at their access point.

Indecision may or may not be my problem.
