ML Smith,
Actually I wouldn't say my bass are "off feed." They just don't feed as heavily twice a day as they do once a day. I believe it's due to temp above they're optimum metabolism. It actually saves me money on feed as it cuts my feed bill in half feeding them only once a day. Once a day feeding also reduces nutrient levels and subsequent weed and algae growth. They still seem very healthy and growing.
As far as the trout there are three things you can do if possible:
2.) Increase the coldwater inflow
3.) Increase the splashing or air contact of you coldwate inflow ie. raise the height of the pipe if you have one etc.
3.) Add some type of surface aeration to increase 02 levels without mixing the water column and increasing temps.
My trout seem to be doing O.K. I've had an odd mortality here and there about once every month or two, but overall they are healthy and growing. One of my taxidermy students took a brook trout out of the pond on his first cast that was 18 7/8 inches on a board and 3 lbs. 4 oz. I believe there are bigger ones.
