I was planning on ordering 4 pounds of shiners for my pond but got to thinking it might be smart to wait till late spring when my trout will die. Since the trout are so active in the winter time, I didn't know if I would just be throwing a snack in there and the trout would wipe them out. I do have plenty of other predators in the pond, but the trout just seem so voracious this time of year compared to the LMB, YP, BG. Any thoughts?

I recently stocked GSH thinking they'll survive the winter, but this is like a third marriage, a triumph of hope over experience. Stocking when they are spawning in spring probably a better bet, trout or no.

My bet is that the shiners will do fine cept for the ones that get eaten
