We've been having 104-107 degree days here, mind you this is VA.. its crazy. Just started feeding the Blue Gill at my friends pond last month, they learned pretty quick were and when the food was coming. Now they're huge schools of BG were few were before, mostly because some submerged pillars are near by were bass hang out, now when the BG feed so do the bass lol. I plan to feed them till winter then start back up in Feb, I figure they don't need to eat much during winter?
