Seems to me that the fish food producers, and therefore pond managers, would benefit from using the vast amount of research done by those who produce fishing baits. I think something like the "real food" baits that would sink very slowly would be nice. A rubbery or "natural" soft texture might encourage finicky fish, especially while training them.
Now that was on target DY.
It seems that it would be real easy to at least make a "training food". They could be extruded to look like worms or bugs, and formulated to move a little as water soaked into them. I bet someone out there could make a million bucks selling a training food, even if it was 25% more expensive than standard pellets.
