The eagle concentrated on the green sunfish thankfully and my catfish are starting to look yummy.

Had a buddy that had pond stocked and I was highly entertained when he threw fish food out! Watching them feeding was awesome.

That looks like a lot of fun. I am a big fan of green sunfish, though. I grew up catching the hell out of ‘em. I could spend the rest of my life with a lightweight fly rod chasing those things and not get bored.

What do you think they weigh? Are the catfish reproducing?

I stocked a pond in March and some of them have already hit 2 plus pounds.

I have a Texas Hunter Fish Feeder. They get fed Optimal fish feed twice per day. I’m down to 2 cats. Both will go about 4 ft long. When they come to feed, everything else scatters.

He made the fish alphabetically. He took care of the flatbill hat wearing boy lovers with bass, and then made catfish for the real men.

They typically don't reproduce in ponds very will because they need a rocky or gravel bottom to spawn.

That should produce some nice eating fish. How will you prepare them?

If they do reproduce, very few get big enough to spawn. They swim slowly and go everywhere in a school.Easy to pick off by larger fish.

I was feeding them a lot but the minnows and sunfish spawned and they had a good amount of food after that.
