Jeff, Losing a few smaller fish when first stocked I would not be worried about. I would say thats fairly normal with all the stress they go through.

CB100 FHM can eat a lot of small things I'm am sure they are not going hungry. 15 minutes is more than enough IMO for minnows. FHM are amazing and just find a way to live.

The only difference between a rut and a Grave is the depth. So get up get out of that rut and get moving!! Time to work!!
