Over the years I have always shut down my feeder during the cold months in Texas - I am being told that since I stocked Floridas I need to run my feeder once a day during the cold months for my bluegill?

Seems like I have read here more than once that most folks shut theirs down during winter. Is it worth trying to feed when it is cold?

I'm in east Texas near Longview. Oddly, my CNBG and BG will spawn even when they are too cold to eat much, or at all. Saw the tiny YOY around my dock last week.

One advantage for the disadvantage of having an acidic, naturally infertile pond: I don't worry much about uneaten food causing issues. I should be so lucky!
