Any experience with Walleye? I'm assuming they will be almost 100% a no simply due to typical habitat in relation to where the feeding happens, but that would be a big bonus. They are going in this fall along with some YP, hopefully they will get some exposure to the feeder before it gets too cold, but I haven't heard a date on when they'll be available yet.

Do you have any location on your pond that is known to hold a heavier concentration of walleye? If you put a floating feeder on the deepwater side of that structure, perhaps you could get a few of the walleye to eat pellets and start the training/rewards process.

I know that it would be a pain to maintain the feeder. Do you have a spot where you could anchor with two ropes on opposing shorelines? That way you could slack one line and use the other to bring your feeding platform back to shore.

Walleye will be stocked here in a month or so, so I'm not sure yet. I do have a location that I think will hold most of them. It is essentially a saddle between 2 points on opposite sides of the pond. It is actually the old bank from the original pond before it was widened back in 2011 or so. Drops off to deeper water on both sides and it is where our crappie seemed to hang out through the summer. I'll have to see if the Walleye end up congregating there, it would be a good spot for exactly what you're suggesting.
