Not to bring up an old subject but I think this will be the last year I feed. It seems to get worse and worse trying to catch my own fish. Yesterday we were fishing for a while and my mom couldn't even get a decent fish to take her small hook. Got a lot of smaller ones nipping at it but that was it. So we strolled over to the feeder in the boat mind you and set right there next to it and I grabbed a bunch of food and chunked it out there and the fish went nuts not 10 feet from us!!! Some nice size fish too. We had just been fishing in that area and couldn't get a bite!
I would rather catch a little smaller fish than not be able to catch hardly any. I am also thinking if I spend 200 bucks on food each year I would just go ahead and put that money towards 10 to 15 pounds of feeder fish in the winter and supplament feed that way. These fish need to work harder for there food they are just to darn lazy!!
