OK.......Tried searching for my answer, but could not find it.

Stocked several weeks ago when this thread was started.

500 bluegill
500 shellcracker
250 Hybrid bluegill
7 lbs of fathead minnow.

Question. These fish show no interest in the food that I throw them almost daily. It just floats until it sinks. What could they possibly be eating as this is a new pond? Are water temps to cold for the fish to eat? Do I keep throwing food in there throughout the winter as they may be eating it on the bottom?

Plan to put 250 more hybrid bluegill and 150 black crappie and another three pounds of fathead minnow in there on the 19th of this month

Largemouth and Hybrid Striped Bass in the Spring

Sound good?
