I've got those two issues. I will go back over them.
I've tried several different angling approaches. Had a hot streak last fall. Caught 30 nice ones in two days. Then it went quiet. I mean zero.
There are not that many hitting the feeder when it goes off. Maybe an additional 20 to 40. I try not to be negative, but I just struggle a bit. I just can't imagine there are still 1,300 YP left in there. My trap catches tadpoles, no matter what I do, but I don't think I'm getting it down deep enough. Same with a drop net. Catching zero.
I'll read those back issues, and see what I can come up with.
Thanks

RES, YP, GS, FHM (no longer), HBG (decreasing), SMB, and HSB (only two have been seen in 5 yrs)
I think that's about all I should put in my little pond.
