This is in front of third feeder I put up a couple of weeks ago. I have bigger bream around this feeder and the other two---lots of them. At this one, however, I also have schools of minnows swimming in circles under the feed and sort of nibbling on the individual pellets as they are too small to shallow one hold.

I put fathead minnows and threadfin shad in the pond. Could it be one of them? could it be schools of baby bream?

They make the feed pile spin almost like a weak whirlpool.

That is how fathead minnows look when they are feeding on pellets. Their mouths are so small, they kinda just suckle at the pellets as a swarm.
