Feeding your pond fish isn’t just about throwing out pellets—it’s about precision timing that drives growth, water quality, and overall pond performance. From critical water temperature thresholds to the safest times of day, the right schedule can dramatically improve feed conversion and fish health. Learn exactly when to start, scale back, or stop feeding to keep your pond balanced, efficient, and thriving year-round.

Using road feeders to supplement wild turkeys in the spring can be effective when done responsibly, legally, and with an understanding of seasonal behavior.

Sarah Parvin and her father have spent years chasing something most pond managers never attempt: growing the world's largest coppernose bluegill on their five-acre North Alabama pond. What started as a happy accident after a devastating 2018 fish kill became their life's work. Then, in July, a second kill wiped out everything they'd built.  Rather than accept defeat they both decided to stare defeat in the face and come roaring back anyway. Learn how Sarah manages feeding schedules, water quality, and habitat to grow trophy fish — and why reliability matters when every growing day counts.
