Why would you want to go to that expense for a 210 acre lake? A lake that size if managed correctly should produce good fishing on it's own.

The down side to feeding is an increase in phosporous and nitrogen and potential weed and algae issues.

Also keep in mind fish feed keeps going up in price as the carvnivorous species need fish meal in the feed. Granted it's typically saltwater trash fish, but it's not infinite in supply as demand keeps going up.

I predict some supply problems in the next decade for supplementsl sportfish feeding as aquaculture demand goes up and sipply goes down. That is unless we figure out a way to eliminate the fish meal and sustitute it 100 percent with grains and other things. We're not there yet.

If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.
