I'm looking for a food that will work for non-feed trained fish for kids, and adults, to toss in for fun. I'm not looking to set up a feeding program because the lake is on vacant property for now.
I bought some Game Fish Food by South Fresh Feeds of Demopolis, AL. The BG won't eat it. Fish after fish will suck in a piece and then immediately spit it back out only to have another one come along and do the same. That happens over and over until the pellet sinks out of sight. The 40 lb bag was $20, so it's not a terrible loss, but it's still a wasted $20. The pellets are all about the same size 1/8-3/16 and sink. The pellets are pretty hard.
Is the rejection based on something other than taste? I was wondering if the pellets need to be pre-soaked to soften them up since the BG have no problem sucking down worms and bread balls.
I'd like to try some other foods but don't want to buy bag after bag of food that will go to waste. Would anyone consent to sending me a sample of what you're using? I'd be glad to send out a sample of what I'm trying to use so you can see if your fish will eat it.
Is there another way to get samples to avoid buying big bags?
Thanks in advance.
