I've thought about this too; I feed off my dock every evening mainly to enjoy the fish and I figure something is better than nothing. WOwens do the homes have docks on the lakes could you get individual homeowners to feed fish from their dock 1/day if you bought the food? That's what I was thinking for my lake, I probably could get 15-20 people to do it and it's a 60 acre lake. Just a thought cause it's just too expensive to add automatic feeders to lakes our sizes.
