Pond Boss Forums MANAGING AN EXISTING POND Feeding Feeder in Michigan?

I have a northern feeder question. I have a � acre excavated pond in Michigan. It is going on four years old. I stocked Fatheads, Perch and Catfish the first spring and Hybrid Bluegill and Largemouth that Fall. I have kept putting Fatheads in on a yearly basis but they last about 2 weeks to no more than a month each time. For the most part the banks are fairly steep. Two years ago, in the fall, I excavated an area about 100� by 30� along one bank to try to establish a spawning bed area for the bluegills. I made the depth of this area about 2 ft. They really seem to use this area for beds. The problem (if it is a problem) is that I never ever see anything that I would consider feeding size. Every thing is full grown and if I put in more fatheads they will be gone in no time. Should I consider adding a feeder (what kind?) rather than adding fatheads, or should I consider golden shiners instead of fatheads or maybe adding regular bluegills. I am confused on the subject since according to the Michigan State Publication I shouldn�t feed, or fertilize, or use regular bluegills. For informational purposes the fish that are in the pond appear to be healthy and not under weight.
