Most of us feed our fish one of the AquaMax pellets. A 50# bag runs 25-40 dollars depending on which pellet and your particular supplier. (call your local feed & seed or ag supplier) These pellets are mostly fish meal and a grain. I'm not aware of any reason not to eat a fish fed pellets. Lot of us do eat our fed fish.
A possible approach is to build another pond to raise forage fish. Fathead minnows reproduce like crazy, but if they're in a pond with BG and LMB, they won't survive. If you raise them separately and dump them in small fish will be happy to chow down. A large LMB wants to eat larger fish. He'll be looking for BG-sized dinner.
