Thanks Leo. I'm feeding AM500/600 to the fisn in my own pond. I stocked feed trained LMB last year, and they feed well on the pellets, as do the trout that were stocked in October. The BG were sourced from a local lake, and they are the ones that are very tentative about eating the pellets. They were like that before stocking the feed trained LMB (meaning tht they were not bullied away from the food by other fish).

I use a battery powered directional feeder, and feed at the same time every day. There are BG in the pond from YOY to 10"+. Those BG have been in the pond for 5-6 years and have never been agressive pellet eaters
