RAH, I wouldn't depend on forage in a catfish pond. Why don't you just feed the catfish pellets? At about $18 a bag, it's the least expensive option. I think longears depend on stream conditions to spawn. Catfish cannot eat enough BG or crappie to keep up with the prolific spawns in ponds. The only natural forage I have found in my CC stomachs has been crawdads.
