Furthermore, your fish are not staying in the coldest parts of the water column. Fish, bass in particular go deep. Where the water is warmer. What happens when the water is warmer? The metabolism speeds up.
They may feed on top of the water when you throw your pellets out there, but they are not staying there. My bream are in deeper water now. They come up to feed.........they feed......and then back into the depths they disappear.
And yes,,,we can use my fish as test mules. Just got finished feeding. They ate very well this evening. Boiling the water. I don't mind being the test subject because I know what the outcome is going to be.
Winter is not in full swing yet. My fish may indeed slow down. In fact, I expect them to. But I fully intend to feed them , until they do. As long as they are eating like they are now, I'm going to continue feeding even if the water temperature goes to 33 degrees.
Like I said. I know the outcome. This , digestive tract MYTH/folklore..associated with Game fish, of all things..along with everything else associated with it......is going to go bye bye.
