email and I will send you feeding recom. based on temp. I really like feding mutiple feedings when weather permits because the bluegill can only eat small amounts per feeding. 10 lbs/day is alot but that is fine as long as you do not have any floating againist the bank 20 mins after it goes off. I like the food to be gone in 5-10 mins.

Yes only the ones in the area will come to feeder. Bluegill has a range and it is not very big; this is why we setup mutiple feeders even on ponds as small as 1/2 acre. This is another advantage to "true" directinal feeder that cast out 45 ft. into pond. WIth wind blowing the area that bluegill can get is 5 times what it is with spinner type or 8 ft. cast feeders.

Hope this helps bascially to get most out of feeders best to set mutiple times spring/fall and setup on point or add more feeders.
