Hey Bayouhunter,

Feeding will take a bit of time. Just keep putting it out there in the same spot same time. Mine took about 3 weeks of 2 small feedings a day before they started hitting it good. I had my feeder set to one second at first. Now I have it set to 2 seconds twice a day. 8AM and 7:30 PM. They are hamering it now. 1500 CNBG in a 3/4 acre pond seems a bit high to me. Once they all start spawning your going have a LOT of fish on your hands. Unless you already have something else in there to eat some of them?? If you don't I would not wait to long to put some bass in there. Maybe this fall. About 25 of them. I would put at least 75 to 150 RES in that pond. I have a 1 acre pond and I put 150 in mine and they have done a great job keeping it cleaned up from parasites and such, but I did not put 1500 CNBG in my pond either? Your numbers maybe should have been more like 600 to 800 CNBG and 150 to 200 RES. Let's wait and see if Ewest has anything more input here I am no expert, so if I have said anything wrong hopefully he will correct me! Eric?

The only difference between a rut and a Grave is the depth. So get up get out of that rut and get moving!! Time to work!!
