Bill, it is my observation that deer prefer natural browse over cereal grains.

For example, we got overly abundant rainfall for the 2nd year in a row. Thus, the acorn crop was again heavy and wild rye is everywhere. They don't have to move very far to eat and so didn't move around much. Thus, hunting has been lousy and even seeing a deer is unusual.


It's not about the fish. It's about the pond. Take care of the pond and the fish will be fine. PB subscriber since before it was in color.
