Burgermeister, I've been pampering my fish for years. At least on this go round I'm not naming them.
I first read of the road kill method in Mother Earth News 20 or so years ago. They said to get a road killed possum and suspend it from a long, stout pole over the pond. Maggots would feed fish and then drop into the water when it rotted for further nutrition. YUCK!
Ewest, I suppose the bass might get some of the BG but I don't think it would be much of a problem. There wouldn't be the feeding frenzy that seems to attract the bass when pellets are tossed or broadcast. The guy that does it lives in Texas and has about a 20 acre pond. He has been written up in Pond Boss several times about his 10 pound bass. At one time his picture was taken with his 4 or 5 year old son with a 7 or so pound bass that the boy caught. Can't remember his name. I tried to get him to adopt me.
