Feeding the fish in your dugout or pond

Description

Proper nutrition is essential to the health of all animals, and fish are no exception. Recreationally cultured fish stocked at a reasonable density in a dugout or pond will obtain most, if not all, their nutrition from their environment. Depending on the ecology of each pond, this natural supply of food may include varied amounts of aquatic and terrestrial invertebrates, such as insects, worms, leeches and freshwater shrimp, as well as amphibians, minnows, plant material and microscopic plankton. However, fish that are found to be slow growing, small at harvest or were knowingly more densely stocked may need to be provided with prepared feeds.
