One of the great benefits of owning a pond that can support fish is watching the fish grow and catching the fish to eat or to release.

Fish need food and smaller fish are eaten by bigger fish. That is the fact of the food chain. Using an automatic feeder to regularly feed the fish in your pond has many benefits. Many small to medium-size ponds don’t produce enough natural food to support the larger predator fish population. Fish feeders fill the gap to feed smaller forager-type species of fish like shiners, shad, and bluegill which are in turn eaten by larger predator-type fish. Without the smaller fish to feed on, the bigger fish go hungry and do not grow. The process of using a fish feeder helps balance the food chain in your pond.
Fish feeders are portable, dependable, and operate on timers so they can easily be placed in almost any location on your property. Digital timers allows for programming of up to six daily feed times with 1 to 20 second duration. Plus, fish feeders are cost-effective since the equipment and feed are not expensive. The overall cost of feed is low compared to the cost of buying and growing larger fish or buying a variety of forager fish. Additionally, fish feeders can serve as wildlife feeders during the winter months, providing enjoyment as you watch animals feed near your pond
Moultrie offers a great, reliable solution to feed your fish. The sturdy metal hopper holds up to 40 pounds of feed, and with its hanging mechanism, you can place it almost anywhere you need to support fish feeding. Powered by the Quick-Lock Directional Feeder Kit that easily twists on and off, you're able to cast feed in a narrower 30° path. Plus, thanks to its internal plastic agitator, feed flow is improved and clumps broken up before being dispersed.
Schedule up to 10 feed times per day on specific days of the week. Feed times can be set for 1-60 seconds in duration, and you can choose from Hi/Med/Low spin cast settings. The timer's display includes a battery level indicator and feed level estimator so that you know when you need to charge/replace the battery or add more corn to the hopper.
This 6.5 Gallon Feeder runs on a powerful battery or can be set up with solar power! We have set these units up successfully and affordably. Consult with us for the best results and your fish will thank you!
