Bruce - The owner of Ridgeview Fin Farm Ridgeville Corners OH has trained a batch of redears on to pellets (www.ridgeviewfinfarm.com) . I saw these fish last week and they are 3"-4" long; not all fish in the tank were eating pellets, just the plump ones. I am pretty sure he started them on krill and gradually switched them over to small high protein pellets. I can ask for the specific method if you want me to. He said the redears were harder to train than other fish he has worked with. He also currently has some YOY black crappies that he has feed trained.
