    fish?

    Thanks for the insights. If I have to clean and cook the fish it would defeat the purpose. I mean, I would eat them myself. The pond is overpopulated and I often just toss the small ones on the bank for the racoons and whatnot. I was just curious if this would be a potential food source? And...
