I'm new to this forum. Has been interesting reading all the good stuff. Me and my local fisheries guy here in Minnesota have been sharing notes on feeding methods. He's interested in demand feeders since he's never tried one. I have one in my pond but it only works at times when the fish are really aggressive. He suggested something I've never heard of. He calls it a maggot pole. The idea is that you install a expanded metal platform on top of one or more posts driven out in the pond. The platform is above the water a ways. On the platform you put every manner of road kill you can find. Before the maggots turn into flies they leave the carcass to dig into the ground. Of course instead they fall into the water. Anyone tried this?

Hello.

It's an experience that I want to do with these 300 fry for fun the pond is ready for it.

My box in fact are tanks of about 2x3feet that will float.

The food for maggot will be the rest of the perch when I make my filet.

Do a google search on "black soldier fly larvae generator".

There is a mountain of information available on the topic.
